00:00Liverpool head coach Arnie Schlott insists he has no hesitation in continuing to select
00:07Trent Alexander-Arnold, despite the defender being booed by sections of the Anfield crowd
00:13during the 2-2 draw with Arsenal on Sunday.
00:16The 26-year-old, who earlier this week confirmed he would not be extending his contract when it
00:24expires this summer, was jeered by some fans as he entered the pitch in the 67th minute.
00:31The reception was mixed with many supporters also applauding the academy graduate, who
00:38has played a major role in Liverpool's modern success, winning the Champions League trophy
00:44and two domestic titles.
00:46The only thing I can say about it is that I owe it to the players and to the club and
01:02to the staff, for everyone that works so hard for us to win a game of football, to try to
01:07do that.

01:49as he continues to plan for the future.
01:53The Northern Irishman received vocal backing from the crowd throughout, including after
01:59being replaced by Alexander-Arnold.
02:02As Liverpool look ahead to their final games, the focus remains on finishing the season strongly,
02:08while one of their homegrown stars prepares for an emotional exit.
02:13They're joined by An terminology to draw on the floor in the future.
02:18Because that's what we want to make of the category, it'll be in this category, theUE
02:22and they're not able to draw on the field as it's in the middle of the field.
02:27So I'm going to get to know what the problem is, we will take the exact same thing out of the
02:32field, changing the outfit, and when the elevatorա Antoni goes back to the field and they come to the
