Trent Alexander-Arnold\u2019s brother has gone viral after sharing his furious reaction to Liverpool\u2019s 2-1 defeat against Manchester United on Sunday. The Premier League champions have now lost four consecutive matches \u2014 their worst run since Brendan Rodgers\u2019 tenure in 2014 \u2014 and suffered their first home defeat to United in nine years.<\/p>\n
Bryan Mbeumo\u2019s controversial opener inside two minutes set the tone, taking advantage while Alexis Mac Allister was down with a head injury. Cody Gakpo\u2019s equaliser in the 78th minute briefly revived hope, but after a string of missed chances and three efforts off the post, Harry Maguire sealed United\u2019s win late on.<\/p>\n
What once seemed like minor growing pains for Arne Slot\u2019s team now looks like a genuine crisis. Defensive issues continue to haunt them, with Matthijs de Ligt even admitting United deliberately targeted Liverpool\u2019s full-backs \u2014 a clear weak spot.<\/p>\n
Trent\u2019s Brother Hits Out at Liverpool<\/p>\n
Few on Merseyside expected to miss Trent as much as they do now. Neither of the new summer full-backs has impressed, while Mohamed Salah\u2019s form has dipped noticeably without the England international behind him. Meanwhile, Trent\u2019s move to Real Madrid hasn\u2019t gone smoothly either \u2014 he\u2019s been benched regularly and faces an uphill battle to reclaim his England spot ahead of the World Cup.<\/p>\n
Last season, whispers suggested Trent had emotionally distanced himself from Liverpool, and many pointed fingers at his brother Tyler, also his agent, for orchestrating the Madrid move. But a passionate outburst from their younger brother Marcell suggests the family\u2019s ties to the club run deeper than critics think.<\/p>\n
Marcell fumed:<\/p>\n
> \u201cWhat\u2019s happened to our team!? From winning the league to four straight losses \u2014 it hasn\u2019t happened in 38 years! Thirty-eight f****** years! And losing to Man United tops it off. It\u2019s a joke, and if you\u2019re not angry, you don\u2019t care about this club.\u201d<\/p>\n
The rant split opinion among Liverpool fans, some questioning his use of \u201cour\u201d given Trent\u2019s departure. Still, many supporters admit they\u2019d welcome the right-back back in a heartbeat.<\/p>\n
With Jeremie Frimpong offering too much attacking risk and Conor Bradley struggling for consistency \u2014 even being subbed off at halftime against Chelsea \u2014 Liverpool\u2019s lack of balance down the right side has become glaring. Trent\u2019s absence, alongside that of Luis D\u00edaz and Diogo Jota, is being felt more than ever as the champions battle through their toughest spell in years.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
