Murphy: Alexander-Arnold may have doubts after season away from Liverpool

While Alexander-Arnold appeared to be missing Liverpool, they were missing him. Jeremie Frimpong failed to convince as a right-back following his big-money move from Bayer Leverkusen, while collective issues led to a fifth-place finish and Arne Slot being relieved of his coaching duties.

Having witnessed those toils from afar, and been overlooked by England for a major tournament in North America, will Alexander-Arnold feel as though he made a mistake? When that question was put to former Liverpool and Three Lions star Murphy, he said: "I think players will always feel that.

When I left, you have moments where you think, 'what have I done?' Of course, that's normal, it's natural." "I don't think he'll be in panic stations just yet because it's only been one season. I'm sure he's still got great belief in his ability. But yeah, he'll have had moments, probably.
