Liverpool defender Trent Alexander-Arnold has once again come under fire from a section of fans following a recent social media post.
Ahead of what is expected to be his final appearance for the club, Alexander-Arnold shared photos of his custom adidas Predator boots, designed to commemorate his Liverpool journey—from 2005 to 2025. The post, made ahead of Sunday’s Premier League clash with Crystal Palace, has sparked backlash, with some fans interpreting it as a subtle jab at incoming manager Arne Slot, who had recently questioned the player’s training commitment.
Accompanying the photos was a simple message: “20 years. Gave it everything,”—a statement that drew mixed reactions. While former manager Jürgen Klopp backed his former player, insisting, “He gave absolutely everything for this badge,” many fans weren’t convinced.
Criticism poured in on social media, with some questioning Alexander-Arnold’s effort and priorities. “Everything? That’s not what the coach said,” one fan replied. Others mocked his defensive contributions and accused him of using his farewell to promote his sponsorship.
The backlash highlights a growing rift between the player and parts of the fanbase, casting a shadow over what should have been a celebratory end to a 20-year Liverpool career marked by Premier League and Champions League triumphs.
