Liverpool defender Alexander-Arnold fumes at Klopp hook during Brighton FA Cup defeat

Liverpool defender Trent Alexander-Arnold made his feelings clear to boss Jurgen Klopp after his substitution.

Alexander-Arnold was taken off after less than an hour in their eventual FA Cup defeat to Brighton on Sunday.

The Reds were bundled out of the competition thanks to a late Brighton winner, with Klopp not happy with the effort of Alexander-Arnold in the game.

Alexander-Arnold looked frustrated and bemused when he was taken off in the contest.

Fans were speculating that Klopp may not have been pleased with his output, while the scores were 1-1 at the time.

However, others suggested his substitution may have been a precaution to prevent injury, given the number of games Liverpool have coming up.
