Trent Alexander Arnold being booed 08:31 - May 12 with 6597 views | numptydumpty | Utter disgrace by Liverpool fans. Club legend. Local lad. Been there from a very young boy. Major part of their impressive glory days of recent years. Leaving for a new exciting challenge Not cost them a penny in terms of a transfer fee. What other club's fanbase would do this ??

Trent Alexander Arnold being booed on 08:40 - May 12 with 3157 views | Wegerles_Stairs | It is pretty mad. I don't think they did it when Keegan left or when Rush signed for Juventus, so it's definitely a modern phenomenon. Obviously Gerrard got appalling treatment when he was set to join Chelsea too. Trent seems like a decent guy too. He didn’t lie to them about signing another contract and then reneging on it. It was always pretty clear he'd be off this summer, and fair play to him for wanting to experience another culture. |  | |  |

It's very unfortunate and not very Scouse in the way Liverpudlians look after their own. The boy's done nothing wrong. Very sad that he gets this treatment from some mindless so called fans. |  |

Trent Alexander Arnold being booed on 09:11 - May 12 with 2982 views | bosh67 | I remember early on Paul Furlong being shouted at by our fans saying he wasn't fit to wear the shirt. He rode that out, particularly in the play off semi final, where he scored 'that goal' and went on to become a fans favourite. Football careers are short and Trent Arnold has given everything to the club and the community physically and financially, so it seems very dim for some fans to boo him. |  |

Quite, and you could argue that is even worse. Les probably in the top 3 of our all time greatest players, whereas TTA as good as he is, well Liverpool have had quite a few more great players than us. On the radio last night a match-going Liverpool fan (rarity) said it was the younger fans doing it. So perhaps this age thing once again. [Post edited 12 May 9:27]

They're the absolute worst fans in the world. They're the reason I dislike Liverpool a tiny bit more than Chelsea and I hate Chelsea infinitely. |  |

Trent Alexander Arnold being booed on 09:53 - May 12 with 2749 views | daveB | It's the hypocrisy of it that gets me. If he was 35 and being released for being old and shit they'd give him a guard of honour, he goes on his own terms boo All that You'll never walk alone crap is great until you either leave or make a mistake like that keeper in the champions league final It's the same at every club though, jimmy Dunne will probably get booed next season by some when he comes back |  | |  |
Trent Alexander Arnold being booed on 10:25 - May 12 with 2628 views | DWQPR | And these are the supporters who expect away supporters to be quiet when they sing that dirge YNWA, continually boo the national anthem, showed total disrespect during a minutes silence for the late Queen but then again expect total silence for the Hillsborough dead. It’s the 40th anniversary of Heysel this month. Will any of them remember and mourn the 40 odd Juve supporters that got crushed by that drunken scouse mob that night? Total scum support. Love to see TAA come back and score the winning goal for Madrid against them. |  |

Trent Alexander Arnold being booed on 10:45 - May 12 with 2531 views | kingsburyR | I've said on here many times in the past the Liverpool and the Scousers are the purge of the earth. Over entitled, pity seeking fakes. Cant stand the city, its football teams, The Beatles, Cilla Black, The Mersey, The song about the Mersey, The bird that lives on top of that building, and anything else remotely associated to the town. Gutted they won the league. You'll never walk alone............my arse. |  |

Trent Alexander Arnold being booed on 10:57 - May 12 with 2469 views | GaryHaddock | Sorry to be contrary…. Nadine Dorries aside, I never met a scouser I didn’t like. Not that I spend a lot of time thinking about it, but the objectionable bits are just symptoms of modern football aren’t they? Any thing that breaks up monopolies at the top of football is a good thing IMO. |  | |  |

Responsible for us missing out on entering Europe too due to the ban! For that reason alone I hate Liverpool. Would have loved to have gone to a few away games in Europe with my late Dad. |  | |  |
Trent Alexander Arnold being booed on 12:08 - May 12 with 2178 views | JamesB1979 | Imagine seeing our 92/93 side in Europe. Still hits me hard now. Imagine how different we might be today? Les, Wilson, Bardsley and so on. Would have been cracking. Maybe Gerry and Les would have stayed? Maybe we’d have not had to sell our best players. And all down to Liverpool! |  | |  |

Smashing up, yes. But 40 people died that day. I’d say that was extreme and deserving of the ban we got. |  | |  |

Yeah, Heysel was the final straw rather than the birthplace of hooliganism. [Post edited 12 May 12:20]

That's not the case though. Yes, we were fifth in 1987/88 but England only ever had four qualifying places in the UEFA Cup which is the maximum any country was allowed. England's was made up of usually 2nd, 3rd and 4th in the league plus the League Cup winners. That season, 2nd, 3rd and 4th were Man Utd, Forest and Everton respectively. Luton would have been the fourth team as LC winners. The reason we qualified in 1983/84 for the following season's UEFA Cup by finishing fifth was because Liverpool had won the first division plus the League Cup. Obviously they qualified for the European Cup and their place in the UEFA Cup for winning the LC then moved down to the next highest placed club in the league, i.e. us rather than the LC runners up (Everton, who qualified for Europe anyway by winning the FA Cup). So if anything it should be Luton fans who should be most aggrieved as they had their only chance so far at European football taken away from them. [Post edited 12 May 12:48]

Trent Alexander Arnold being booed on 12:49 - May 12 with 1917 views | hoops_legend | I certainly don't agree with it.... especially given his boyhood status with them and how long he has played for them But to put balance on the argument - perhaps its because they are sad he is going and trying to make it clear they think people should be loyal to liverpool. I don't think its a liverpool problem, as others have pointed out - it happens in other football teams including ours... football is just extremely fickle. I have never booed any of our players when they are trying their best for us! Boswinga, Joey Barton when they didn't give a flying something about us - deserved boos... but thats about it..

Trent Alexander Arnold being booed on 12:54 - May 12 with 1885 views | joe90 | Why shouldn’t they boo him? At the moment Liverpool are one of the best clubs in Europe and he has moved to a rival club. All the points about him coming through the youth system etc just make it worse! The most rediculous thing about all of this is that some seem to hold Liverpool fans in higher regard than other football fans! [Post edited 12 May 12:59]

Not condoning their fans - but the fact UEFA saw fit to host their showpiece final in an ageing, crumbling stadium, with haphazard ticketing and virtually non-existent stewarding/policing on the night, did not help either. Still amazed to this day that they still went ahead and played the final, but I suppose the alternative was potentially much worse. |  |
