“Liverpool Fans Furious with £280k p/w Duo Following Frustrating Man United Draw”
“Liverpool Fans Are Fed Up with £280k p/w Duo After Disappointing Man United Draw”
Liverpool fans are growing frustrated with Andy Robertson and Trent Alexander-Arnold following their subpar performances in the Reds’ 2-2 draw with Manchester United on Sunday. The Premier League encounter at Anfield saw high expectations for Arne Slot’s team to dominate the struggling Red Devils.
However, that wasn’t the case. Manchester United came out strong and were the better team in the first half, earning a deserved lead shortly after the break when Lisandro Martinez sent the ball into the roof of the net. The advantage was short-lived, though, as Liverpool responded with a Cody Gakpo goal, followed by Mohamed Salah converting a penalty to give his side the lead—potentially in what could be his last appearance against United with Liverpool.
It seemed like Slot’s side had fought back to secure all three points, but Amad Diallo had different plans, netting an equalizer with just over 10 minutes left in the game. While the result was a positive one for United, Liverpool fans were left frustrated with the draw and have heavily criticized their full-backs for their underwhelming performances.
Both Robertson and Alexander-Arnold Struggled on the Night
While Manchester United put in a strong performance throughout, Robertson and Alexander-Arnold made things difficult for their side. Both full-backs struggled against United’s attack, failing to keep up with Ruben Amorim’s forwards. Over the years, the pair have been instrumental in Liverpool’s success, but that wasn’t evident on Sunday night, prompting fans to voice their frustrations. Robertson, in particular, has had a challenging season and is far from his usual standard. Reports suggest that Liverpool may already be considering a replacement for the Scot.
With Alexander-Arnold’s contract nearing its expiration, rumors are swirling about a potential move to Real Madrid, leaving fans frustrated. One supporter expressed their anger on X (Twitter), saying, “All game it’s been down Trent’s side and Robertson at the back post there. Pair of jokers,” while another wrote, “Two of the worst full-back performances you will ever see. As predicted, Trent’s contract has totally unsettled him, and Robertson is probably the worst LB in the league now.”
One fan went as far as to call them one of the worst defensive duos ever, commenting: “Trent & Robertson might just be the worst defensive pairing I’ve ever seen. Not a brain cell between them.” Another supporter added, “Trent and Robertson should cover their faces in shame for this performance.” Finally, one fan criticized the pair for letting the entire team down, stating, “Would hate to be Trent and Robertson in that dressing room tonight, knowing you’ve let your whole team down.”
