Alexander-Arnold not to blame for goals conceded - Slot

Liverpool manager Arne Slot says he recognises patterns in the goals his side concede - but they are not down to right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold.

Alexander-Arnold was heavily criticised following the Reds being held to a 2-2 draw by Manchester United on Sunday.

United scored their first through Lisandro Martinez with an attack down Liverpool's right and their second came from Amad Diallo converting a cross from the right.

According to football statisticians Opta, Liverpool's opponents are having 44% of their touches in the left third in the attacking areas - this would be Liverpool's right-hand side - which is the highest ratio in the Premier League.
