Liverpool fans on Twitter want Clyne return as Alexander-Arnold suffers setback
Liverpool fans have all been rocked as the news has hit them that Trent Alexander-Arnold will be out for four weeks having suffered a knee injury. This would be bearable had Jurgen Klopp not loaned out Nathaniel Clyne, however, it looks like someone will have to fill in out of position as Klopp has no right-backs to call upon.
How should Liverpool deal with Trent's injury and who should now play at right-back?

The options are all there, James Milner can play anywhere, Fabinho was a tody right-back for Monaco before becoming an excellent holding midfielder and Joe Gomez can play anywhere across the backline when he’s fit. However, the fans have been calling for a recall for Clyne as they’d rather see a natural right-back played there as the Reds continue their title charge.
Clyne will be playing his football at Bournemouth for the rest of the season, despite being one of Liverpool’s most dependable players in the early years under Klopp. He signed for the Reds in 2015 and was looked at as being the long-term right-back for both Liverpool and England. Injuries have really derailed the star over the last couple of seasons, though, and whilst he may be on the periphery, the fans wish he was at the club now.

The Reds are desperate for Clyne to be recalled, although the chances are he’s unable to be recalled and Klopp will have to get by without him.
