Andy Robertson launches passionate defence of Liverpool team-mate Trent Alexander-Arnold after departing full-back was booed against Arsenal

Andy Robertson admitted it hurt him to see team-mate and friend Trent Alexander-Arnold get booed by the Anfield crowd on Sunday as he praise the departing full-back.

Alexander-Arnold confirmed this past week that he has made the decision to eave the Reds with the Englishman expected to join Real Madrid in the summer.

The announcement has not been received well by Liverpool fans and they made their feelings known on Sunday.

Alexander-Arnold started on the bench against the Gunners but was brought on during the second half.

Boos rung around the ground as he made his way onto the pitch before they began to chant the name of his understudy Conor Bradley.
