Steven Gerrard has questioned Trent Alexander-Arnold‘s decision to leave Liverpool, but also said he understands the right-back’s decision. “If I take my Liverpool hat off, I think any player in the game when Barcelona and Real Madrid come, it’s going to turn your head,” Gerrard said.
“So without my Liverpool hat on, Real Madrid and Barcelona, whether you like it or not – if you’re a United fan, Liverpool fan – they’re two humongous clubs. No matter who you are, it’s going to turn your head, or you’re not human.
“But as soon as I put my Liverpool hat back on, I think, ‘what are you doing? But this is with my Liverpool hat on, because I love Liverpool Football Club.” Alexander-Arnold’s decision to exit Liverpool was always going to be tough to take from a Reds perspective, not least because they had just been crowned Premier League champions.
