Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk has dismissed any concerns over Trent Alexander-Arnold’s mindset, insisting the right-back remains focused on delivering top performances. He emphasized that Alexander-Arnold has strong support from his family and the team, adding that any potential distractions should be left aside once the game begins.
Frustration Over Liverpool’s Display
Van Dijk also expressed frustration over Liverpool’s performance, particularly their inability to control the game after taking a 2-1 lead. The Dutch defender highlighted the team’s sloppiness in possession, which allowed Manchester United to find a way back into the match. He noted that Liverpool should have managed the game better instead of giving United opportunities to exploit open spaces.
No Individual Blame from the Captain
Despite his visible displeasure during the match, Van Dijk clarified that his frustrations were directed at the overall team performance rather than any individual player. He stressed the importance of keeping possession and making smarter decisions to avoid unnecessary pressure.
Van Dijk remains firm in his belief that Liverpool must improve their game management, especially when leading. He also backed Alexander-Arnold’s professionalism, stating that the full-back is fully committed to the team’s success. Liverpool will now look to respond positively in their upcoming fixtures.
