It is a time when supporters in Liverpool have to walk on Sunshine, for the first time in 35 years free to openly celebrate a competition title in the streets of their city.
Instead, they are in a state of open warfare that took place on Monday in the comments sections of almost every report with the so -called 'outcast of Anfield'.
For many of those who contribute to these arguments, the exercise of Trent Alexander-Arnold on Sunday was a hellish act, the shame of the mysticism of the club and destroying the idea that Liverpool is somehow different. For just as much it was a justified response to an absolute betrayal by one of them.
The arguments brought claim and against claim, about issues such as or racism on Sunday was at the cause of De Booing. Debates raged about how many people had hit each other that afternoon. Another extraordinary discussion. Fans told each other on one thread that they were a 'shame', a 'clown' and a 'wool' – Liverpool – people for those who do not come from the city.
Anger about a local player who leaves Merseyside is by no means new. The pain and sting of such rejection is always felt acute in Liverpool, a city where they – for a good reason – feel that they are against the world.
When an 18-year-old Wayne Rooney signed for Manchester United in 2004, graffiti who explained him as 'Judas', 'String' and making threats in his life was fined around Goodison. The angry in Rooney's second season in the midst of rumors he left.
Michael Owen was never forgiven because he had left for Real Madrid. Raheem Sterling agitated to leave after he was signed at the Liverpool Academy and was boosted when collecting a Young Player of the Year Award. Steven Gerrard's shirt was burned at the mere prospect he went.
But the anger surrounding the departure of Alexander-Arnold has reinforced anger into new levels. An image of him during a charity event, tweeted as proof that he had been a force for his indigenous city, causing despite abuse last week.
There has even been a debate about who has the right to express a position in a controversy of many layers. Jamie Carragher said that those who are not affiliated with Liverpool and the city would simply not understand the 'emotion'.
The 'emotion' is actually easy to understand. It is the same emotion that now floods every corner of a sport that seems to have become a lightning rod for the anger of society. The 90 -minute arch of a match no longer supports the 24/7 Eco System of Football, which is occupied by the debates that raged around it.
These are fed by the furious social media machine, aggressive analysis and punditry. The debates, drowning in negativity, have made the sport a modern snake competition and made stages of such angry places.
England fans Boo Black England players who miss punishments and throw bottles in Gareth Southgate. Anonymous fans spend the death threats on referee Michael Oliver. West Ham -Fans Boo Declan Rice. Sheffield Wednesday fans mock a victim of child cancer.
We traveled from the world of football hooliganism to a place where we could take our families with us, and now to this country of simmering anger.
Academics have tried to interpret why football is the most angry game and is so common than ever. Philosopher Julian Baggini says that a football stadium gives you a license for raw, unfiltered emotion: a 'suspension of decent behavior' in which stadiums pull your annoyance '.
Sports psychologist Josephine Perry speaks of a 'infection effect', where people are in case because the people around them do.
For some, this frustration comes from a feeling that their football clubs are now feeling more remote places; Business machines that make them always feel insignificant and priced.
Booing is the only way to make their voice heard. But others seem to take substitute pleasure to be part of the story.
The controversy of Alexander-Arnold has become a form of reality TV show in which it becomes as many participants as he. It's like you vote from a ball room set or from a jungle. In the modern world, everyone wants to press the red button, tweet a verdict, vote, have a say.
This simmering anger tends to damage Liverpool and the image of the Premier League. Will young players look at the way of the exit of Alexander-Arnold and think twice? Dominik Szoboszlai looked stunned.
The nuanced truth is that for a long time Alexander-Arnold had the feeling that his contract situation was parked by Liverpool. In the summer of 2023, two years after his most recent new deal and when conversations were expected, he would probably have signed an extension. But with Jurgen Klopp seen his own future and Liverpool by a number of sporting directors, the situation was allowed to drift.
He became twitchy and everything remained unclear when Klopp announced his decision to leave, long before a successor stood in line. By the time that sports director Richard Hughes arrived last summer, he was already aware of other options and wanted to think about the interest of Madrid.
Alexander-Arnold, we are told, knew that the Booing would probably come, which forms the question of whether this form of protest will continue to bear a lot of weight if it becomes so inevitable and everyday.
As a commentator puts it: 'If everyone is booed, nobody will be booed because it becomes white noise that everyone comes out. And then, far from a voice, fans have no at all. '
The digital debate will turn to the reception that Alexander-Arnold will get after his last Liverpool match against Crystal Palace, a week on Sunday, although it is intangible. He's gone.
There have been no winners.
Nobody keeps feeling good about Sunday. The golden glow of a 20th Premier League title was not intended.
