Liverpool fans have called on Arne Slot to take immediate action after watching the performances of two players in their 2-2 draw against Manchester United.

The Reds extended their lead at the top of the Premier League table to seven points over Arsenal with the draw at Anfield.

Slot's side went 1-0 down on 52 minutes through Lisandro Martinez's 52nd-minute strike, but were 2-1 ahead on 70 minutes after Cody Gakpo's 20-yard effort and Mohamed Salah's penalty.

Amad Diallo then equalised for United in what was fast becoming an end-to-end second half.

And the visitors almost took all three points in the last minute of the game when Harry Maguire had an opportunity inside the penalty area, but the ball bobbled in front of the England international and his effort cleared the bar.

Liverpool fans were critical of two players in particular after the draw at Anfield.

Trent Alexander-Arnold gave the ball away in the build-up to Martinez's goal, with the right-back also receiving criticism for failing to close down Bruno Fernandes.

He was taken off by Slot with five minutes to go and replaced by Conor Bradley.

And Andy Robertson also received criticism from Liverpool fans after failing to block Amad's effort inside the area to make it 2-2.

One Liverpool fan wrote on social media: "No words for this Trent performance. Can not believe he came out for the second half."

A second said: "Trent Alexander-Arnold was absolutely abysmal today."

A third wrote: "I'm sorry, Robertson and Trent cannot be our starters anymore."

And a fourth added: "Robertson needs dropping."

And a fifth claimed: "Slot had to take Trent off after United scored the first."

Liverpool are next in action when they travel to north London to take on Tottenham Hotspur in the Carabao Cup semi-final first leg, with the clash due to kick off at 8pm on Wednesday.
