Liverpool may be top of the league as we endure the second international break of the campaign but Ian Wright is not happy with FSG at the moment.
Speaking on ITV, the 60-year-old discussed Trent Alexander-Arnold’s contract situation: “You can’t see anything happening in January, for sure, especially the way Liverpool have started the season, but for me, what he’s done for Liverpool up to this point…

“It’s different when people talk about Steve McManaman and Michael Owen, yeah, they won League Cups and European Cups and the FA Cup but he’s won the lot.
“He’s won the Premier League, the Champions League, the World Club Cup, the FA Cup, the League Cup, he’s won everything and he’s done it at his hometown club.
“Liverpool and FSG have got themselves into a position where he’s in his last year. It’s crazy.”

It’s not only the Scouser who’s in this position with his contract but given the age of our academy graduate, it’s been a real mismanagement to have this problem on our hands.
There’s still time to rectify and ensure all supporters are appeased but losing any of our most important players will only make Arne Slot’s job considerably harder.

Arne Slot’s Liverpool reign is about to be turbocharged as Reds enter rollercoaster fixture sequence
Ian Wright is right, right, right. But if we were to lose just one of the three I’d prefer it to be Trent, right back is the easier position to fill and Slott’s style is for a shorter passing game. I’d prefer him to stay but if he’d prefer to to be just one of the other players behind Mbappe, Rodrigo, Vinicus Jr, Bellingham etc. rather than a Legend at Anfield. Then so be it.
