Werner Waves Goodbye, Nostalgia Kicks In…
In a twist of footy surrealism that sent Kopites’ boots into a tizzy, Liverpool’s chairman, Tom Werner, delivered an Anfield-sized thank you to the elusive Trent Alexander-Arnold. After the young Scouser pirouetted his way to the formidable Real Madrid, poor Werner was left at the end of the rainbow with nothing but fond memories and an imaginary umbrella as tears poured from the stormy sky of fans’ outrage. Despite the exit tornado, Werner’s love for Trent’s magical boots remains shinier than a brand new trading card.
Busting down the left wing like some sort of football wizard, Trent swapped his Liverpool jersey for Real Madrid’s ‘Los Galacticos’ delight. With a transfer fee rocketing into the astronomical realm of £10million, Trent hopped over the Channel, eager to grace the Club World Cup like a footballing Hercules. Werner blew the whistle on any hard feelings, instead opting to treasure those game-winning assists that made him weep more than a seasoned onion slicer.
Nevertheless, Trent’s iconic corner attack against Barcelona will forever blaze in the minds of Liverpool fans like a fireworks show on a hot Scouse summer’s night. Werner indulged in some nostalgic popcorn while recounting the legendary manoeuvre that left defenders as dazed as kittens in a laser pointer exhibition. Now, strutting his stuff in Spain, Trent’s passing precision woos Real supporters, forcing even Spaniards to exclaim, “¡Ole!”
