Trent Alexander-Arnold was substituted against Crystal Palace to manage his workload and is not suffering from a lack of confidence, according to Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp.
Liverpool were held to a 0-0 draw by Palace on Saturday night as their hopes of climbing the table towards the top four took a hit. The Reds had won their previous two Premier League games, but were short of quality in attack against Palace as Diogo Jota and Mohamed Salah both struck the woodwork.
Alexander-Arnold endured a difficult night, with his error fortunate not to be punished when Jean-Philippe Mateta rattled the crossbar after he was dispossessed by Jeffrey Schlupp. The Liverpool right-back gave the ball away a staggering 20 times in the first half alone and was substituted in the 70th minute, with Klopp bringing on James Milner.
