Liverpool's 2-0 win over Rangers on matchday 3 of the Champions League group stage did not leave Jürgen Klopp satisfied. The German manager is still annoyed with one player for his performance and is thinking seriously about what decision he will make. For several days he has been very insistent on correcting him, but this player does not seem to understand the indications. The next test will be on Sunday when the Reds play Arsenal in the Premier League.

Trent Alexander-Arnold has been one of the players most heavily criticised for Liverpool's shaky start but he responded to Jürgen Klopp's faith with a tremendous Champions League goal. Liverpool have had a difficult start to the season in both the Premier League and Champions League as results have not been forthcoming for a team used to being in good form. In the midst of all this, a lot of finger-pointing has fallen on Trent Alexander-Arnold.

Despite the Reds getting back to winning ways and moving closer to qualification for the Champions League, Jürgen Klopp argued on the technical line with midfielder Fabinho for a period of the game because after he brought him on in the second half, he was not having a good game. The German spent several minutes shouting at him to try to make him understand his idea of the game to avoid having a problem at the end of the game. 

The images have already gone around the world, as the former Monaco man chose to turn a deaf ear and ignore Klopp, an action that infuriated the boss. The TV cameras focused on the former BVB boss, causing a stir among the fans at Anfield, to which Fabinho decided to go immediately to the technical area to calm things down a bit. Fabinho arrived at Anfield in 2018 for €50m, he has been one of Klopp's favourites.

Klopp could replace Fabnho against Arsenal 

The class and technique of the Carioca has earned him a place in one of the best teams in the world, but he is also responsible along with his teammates for the moment the club is going through. Liverpool recently saw an unbelievable draw in a game they had lost and courageously came from behind. But if the Brazilian continues to fail to understand Klopp's instructions, he could be substituted for Sunday's game against Arsenal, also with a view to resting him for the run of games coming up.
