Ex-Liverpool player Stephen Warnock has come out to urge fans of the club to stop booing Trent Alexander-Arnold. This is coming despite his impending move to Real Madrid, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, the fans must accept the fact that Trent has decided to leave, because while his decision might not be ideal for them, it is still his decision.
Warnock added that Arnold might not get the send-off he would want, but fans have to appreciate what he has done for the club.

His words, “I’m of the opinion that the Liverpool fans shouldn’t be booing Trent Alexander-Arnold. He’s a local lad; he’s one of their own and has made a decision – the fans need to move on. Yes, it’s not ideal, I know I’d love to see him stay but I don’t understand the booing, I couldn’t believe it. There were fights breaking out between fans about their opinions on the matter, it’s disappointing to see.
I don’t think Trent will get the send-off that he wants, but who knows, maybe on the last day if it’s an emotional moment. When he was booed coming on the other day, it’s as if the fans then saw what they were going to be missing as he was playing passes around the park and the Liverpool fans couldn’t help but cheer. You can’t help but appreciate the kind of player he is. He may not get the send off he’d like but at the end of the day the fans will have to appreciate what he’s done for the club.”
WOW.
Liverpool Football Club is a professional football club based in Liverpool, England. The club competes in the Premier League, the top tier of English football. Founded in 1892, the club joined the Football League the following year and has played its home games at Anfield since its formation.
Domestically, the club has won 19 league titles, eight FA Cups, a record nine League Cups and 16 FA Community Shields. In international competitions, the club has won six European Cups, three UEFA Cups, four UEFA Super Cups—all English records—and one FIFA Club World Cup.
The club established itself as a major force in domestic and European football in the 1970s and 1980s, when Bill Shankly, Bob Paisley, Joe Fagan and Kenny Dalglish, led the club to a combined 11 League titles and four European Cups. Liverpool won two further European Cups in 2005 and 2019 under the management of Rafael Benítez and Jürgen Klopp, respectively; the latter led Liverpool to a 19th league title in 2020, the club’s first during the Premier League era.
Anfield was built in 1884 on land adjacent to Stanley Park. Situated 2 miles (3 km) from Liverpool city centre, it was originally used by Everton before the club moved to Goodison Park after a dispute over rent with Anfield owner John Houlding. Left with an empty ground, Houlding founded Liverpool in 1892 and the club has played at Anfield ever since. The capacity of the stadium at the time was 20,000, although only 100 spectators attended Liverpool’s first match at Anfield.
