In the 2020-21 campaign, the side looked a shadow of themselves as they were unable to implement their gegenpressing ideas and had to use makeshift centre backs instead.

This season has seen a similar run of injuries affecting all areas of the team, meaning that Klopp has been unable to use the new five substitute rule as much as he wanted.

This has then led to more players in the physio room, with Alexander-Arnold and Luis Diaz both forced off with serious injuries, while Arthur Melo is currently out for three months after tearing his quad.

With so few options to take their place in the team, Alexander-Arnold has not always been given a rest away from the public gaze. Due to a lack of fit replacements he has had to call on 36-year-old James Milner.
