Liverpool’s players were “gutted” to learn of Trent Alexander-Arnold’s decision to leave but captain Virgil van Dijk insists the full-back and the rest of the players will deal with Anfield’s toxic fall-out together.

The England international’s introduction as a 67th-minute substitute in the 2-2 draw with Arsenal, just six days after he confirmed he would not be extending a contract which expires next month, was greeted with boos from large numbers inside the ground.
