Trent Alexander-Arnold has explained the difference in mentality and therefore results from our past two seasons and this one.

“I think this season we’ve maybe forgotten a few of those fundamentals and we’ve kind of just expected to do that because it became so natural for us.” Next up is Sheffield United on Sunday.



“The fact that we were still doing those things meant that we would still create the right opportunities and we wouldn’t be forcing passes, but we’d still stick to our way and would create something we could score from.



But, breaking it down, it didn’t just happen because we were lucky – it happened because we were still working hard, we were doing the basics and the fundamentals right until the very last minute and that really worked in our favour.



It’s pretty much unfathomable – and can largely be explained by the injuries which have decimated our side.

“That happened naturally last season and the season before.

“The trap we have probably fallen into this season is that we’ve almost expected to win games on some occasions because we know we have the quality to find that goal from somewhere,” he said in the official Liverpool FC matchday programme, cited in teamtalk.
