Former Liverpool striker Michael Owen covered his junior Trent Alexander-Arnold, who was booed by home fans.
Owen appeared on the 'Premier League Productions' on the 12th (Korea Standard Time) and said, `It's really heartbreaking that a home fan booed Arnold.' `When I played for Newcastle, I remember sitting in the player's lounge after playing against Liverpool. At the time, both my parents and I shed tears at the (Liverpool) fans' boos.
Arnold was booed by some home fans in the 36th round of the English Premier League (EPL) against Arsenal in the 2024-2025 season at Anfield in Liverpool, England. This is the voice of fans who felt betrayed by the fact that the franchise star raised by Liverpool is scheduled to join Real Madrid on a free contract after the season. Arnold replaced Conor Bradley in the 22nd minute of the second half and played on the ground for about 23 minutes.
'Liverpool One Clubman Legend' Jamie Carragher told the sports broadcaster"Sky Sports"It's a story that will be in every newspaper. I was surprised that there was so much booing. I can't accept the fact that a player who won a trophy in a red uniform is booed. It's not my cup of tea to boo his team's players when they're playing."
Owen, who twice drew the ire of Liverpool fans when he moved from Liverpool to Real in 2004 and then to Liverpool rival Manchester United in 2009, said `less than 1 percent of the fans who visited the stadium would have booed' and `The rest of the world's millions of fans will applaud Arnold, thank him, and pray.'
Then "I know better than anyone else what Arnold's position is. Arnold would be really embarrassed. Arnold, who played purely for Liverpool for 20 years, said he will not forget the memories of booing him. Owen, a former Liverpool youth and former Newcastle, Manchester United and Stoke City, failed to return to Liverpool and retired in 2013.
Liverpool manager Arne Slot said fans were free to express their opinions after the 2-2 draw. Liverpool, which confirmed its early victory, led with consecutive goals by Cody Hakpo and Luis Díaz in the 20th and 21st minutes of the first half, but they dedicated the equalizer to Gabriel Martinelli in the 2nd minute of the second half and Mikel Merino in the 25th minute of the second half.
What about the fans looking at 'Arnold booing situation'? Liverpool fans 'Jason' is sorry for the British public broadcaster 'BBC' Liverpool fans shouldn't be booing their players like that while singing the cheer song 'You'll Never Walk Alone' every week. As a Liverpool fan, Arnold will forever remain an amazing player who has directly contributed to us lifting a number of trophies. Arnold, you don't walk alone..." he responded.
`Matt' is `What I'm worried about is if fans booed Arnold even if he left with a huge transfer fee. Even when Coutinho left with a large transfer fee, we were not satisfied. Arnold won every trophy here and gave everything. It's disappointing to leave the team, but I think it's a fair competition."
The club was to blame for failing to offer Arnold a new contract last season, while the club `Ben' said `.

Arnold posted on his personal social media on the 6th, `After 20 years at Liverpool, it's time to make sure he's leaving the team. It was the hardest decision of my life. I think many of you must have been frustrated and wondering why you haven't said anything yet. I've always wanted to concentrate on the team's interests, which is to win my 20th championship."
Then "Liverpool was everything in my life, everything in my world. The support and love of everyone who has sent me from the youth days to now inside and outside the club will remain in my heart forever. I will live forever indebted to you."
As for the background of leaving Liverpool on a free contract, he said, "This decision is to challenge new things and push myself to the limit as a player and as a human being, out of the old frame. "I gave everything I had for the club every day. I hope you all feel that. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to everyone, including coaches, directors, colleagues, staff, and great supporters, who have been with me for 20 years."
"I will never lose my love for this club."
