Jamie Carragher believes that Trent Alexander-Arnold should not receive a special broadcast after his decision to join Real Madrid but condemned the angry who was directed with Arsenal on Sunday with Arsenal on Sunday.
Alexander-Arnold first appeared in Anfield since he confirmed that he would leave his boy's club for the Bernabeu at the end of the season, and was brought about as a second half replacement for potential successor Conor Bradley.
The change was greeted by Audible Jeers from Home supporters and many of his early details also caused more angry. Songs of 'there is only one conor bradley' broke out when the crowd made their feelings clear about his departure.
Despite the condemnation of the icy reception for the 'too far', Carragher said that Liverpool could do without the 'circus' around the 26-year-old and claimed that he will not earn an emotional farewell after his last game.
“He doesn't have to get to the field,” said the expert on Sky Sports. 'Everyone comes to the field at the end of the game. He does not have to be supplied.
“I said earlier, I don't know anything about a broadcast or something. He chooses to leave. I disagree with that [booing] Today.
'But I don't think he should get something big at the end of the season or get a microphone to give a big speech for the crowd.
'He chooses to leave and that is why the frustration is there. That was a step too far for me. Sing the names of other players, not a player who wears a Liverpool shirt. '
Carragher then claimed that the majority of Liverpool would also want to secretly play for Real Madrid, and added: 'I think teammates in this dressing room would normally collect around most people 99 percent of the time.
'Supporters of a football club will probably not want to hear this, but most players in that dressing room in Liverpool probably want to play for Real Madrid.
'I have been to a dressing room where players left us to go to Barcelona and Real Madrid. It is really difficult for supporters. You almost feel that they fall for it every time, “this player absolutely loves us”. And then they continue and go somewhere else.
'Players don't think as supporters. Many of those players in the dressing room will think they would like to play for Real Madrid. '
Baas Arne Slot stated on Friday that he would not tell angry supporters how they should feel while the teammate of Alexander -Arnold – and good friend – Andy Robertson said it was 'not nice' to hear the angry aimed at the defender.
'In general and life, the good of life in Europe, everyone can have their opinion. That is the same here in Liverpool, “said Slot after the game.
“There were people who were not so happy, there were people who were happy for him. They clapped him. A few of them boast. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. By the end, some of them became more and more positive. But it's easy for me.
'I owe it to the team, to the fans, to play a team that can win a football match. Trent showed it because he had two or three incredible balls.
“We were so close to winning it, partly because of him. It is not that difficult for me. And for the fans they can have the reaction they want. I will always support my players. '
Robertson, who won two Premier League titles, the Champions League, the FA Cup and the Carabao Cup in the same back four as Alexander-Arnold, said: “There is a lot of emotion around it. It is crucial at these moments that I don't tell you how to feel and you don't tell me how to think about it. All I can do is tell you how I think about it.
'First of all, I am disappointed to lose my best partner. In the game we did it all together. He is a great player and person. He has made me a better player and that comes from the ground of my heart.
“He brought me to levels that I never knew existed. He kept pushing me through the good years. And he made a choice. His estate in this club can clearly be seen there. The trophies he has won, the moments he has had in history, will always be there.
“It's an emotional decision. It has not been easy for Trent. It is of course not. But he has made the decision. It is not nice to see that a friend is being booed, it was not fun.
“But as I said, we can't tell people how to act. I can't tell you how I think about it, I am extremely proud of him. I love him as a player, I love him as a friend.
“He will be missed as one of my best friends in the game.”
