Liverpool enjoyed a convincing victory over West Ham and it was Trent Alexander-Arnold’s finish that both ended the evening as a competition and also moved conversation away from football.
The Scouser’s deflected effort led to a cryptic celebration that certainly seemed to address the talk that is circling in the media about his future.
That is of course that his contract comes to end at the close of this campaign, from the start of 2025 he can negotiate with foreign clubs and the continued links with Real Madrid.
After the game though, the vice captain took to his Instagram account to share a picture of himself and Mo Salah in conversation which once again felt like a deliberate nod to the current contract conversations.
You would assume that the West Derby-born defender wouldn’t be so flagrant about circling stories about him leaving the club and so we may well get excited about this choice of actions.
Trent Alexander-Arnold and Mo Salah are vital for Liverpool
With the Egyptian King also demonstrating his importance to the club during the game against the Hammers, the importance of securing the future of both men is only increasing.
Let’s hope that the start of 2025 brings with it the beginning of some new deals for the pair and Virgil van Dijk, as all focus should be on our amazing form.
Victory in the London Stadium ensured an eight-point lead at the top and it’s hard to forecast any sudden downturn in form at present.
Let’s hope the good times keep coming and that this negative talk can come to an end.

Peter Wall passes away; EOTK tribute to one of Shankly’s men
Only thats Luis Diaz
Thank you Rafa, Kloop – rampant Red’s, full throttle the Slot way to a deserving 20th league banner year 2024/2025.
Thank you Uncle Bob, Fagan, Ronnie Moran, Daglish least we forget, thank you all Reds’ for a great close onwards to dominate all of Champ League Euro 2025.
Great
That’s not even Salah. It’s Curtis Jones and Luis Diaz.
Hope he stays, but he’s got to want to. If not, then we will move on. The only downside is we will get nothing for him if he leaves at the end of the season and being a scouser you would have thought he would have made sure we got something for him to reinvest into the team….
Agreed. Won’t want to comment much until the end product is final. I hope he sign the new contract, even if he want to leave, to show gratitude to the club that brings him up to his current status as an elite player ( at least for Liverpool).
It’s now more than boring the talk of Arnold & his expiring of his contract with the Reds. It’s now a nonsense.
“It’s now a nonsense.” Indeed.
It is also more than boring to keep on hearing the omission of Fredrick Chiesa from the team…Why Slot is doing that to profile player like Chiesa…how many games did he played with the full team that he keeps on saying Chiesa did not have pre season training games…now it’s almost half season ,18 games to be proper but he keeps on giving
excuses over Chiesa..how will he get to full fit if he keeps on sidelining him…Plz Slot shld not let say that is not supposed to be talked about him….
Liverpool should increase Salah and VVD salary for them stay in the club. They are very important to the club. Luis Diaz and Gravenbech also need salary adjustment.
We are going to miss Salah if he doesn’t get a new contract why won’t we
