Looking back on this era, although they’ve won more titles than us and have probably been more successful, our trophies will mean more to us and our fanbase because of the situations at both clubs, financially,” Alexander-Arnold said in an interview with FourFourTwo (via MEN).

However, Haaland rejected the England international’s remark.

Haaland said (via Sky Sports): “If he wants to say that, okay. I have been here one year, and I’ve won the treble, and it was quite a nice feeling. I don’t think he knows exactly this feeling.

Liverpool can talk as much as they want, or Trent Alexander-Arnold can talk as much as he wants. I don’t know why he does that, but I don’t mind.”

The Cityzens want a record fourth consecutive title but must contend with a resurgent Liverpool side desperate to give charismatic manager Jurgen Klopp the perfect send-off this summer.
