Liverpool have become a stronger side as a result of their setbacks, according to Trent Alexander-Arnold.
The right-back believes the current crop of Reds players have used lows in their careers, whether personal or collective, as the catalyst to achieve success.
He points to the Champions League final defeat in 2018 as the chief example; a year after losing that match to Real Madrid in Kiev, Jürgen Klopp’s team returned to lift the trophy in Madrid while simultaneously collecting 97 points in the Premier League.
Liverpool will aim to utilise that character trait again this season, after missing out on the title so narrowly last term.
