Roy Keane is “fed up” with Trent Alexander-Arnold's "childish antics" after his lackluster performance for Real Madrid against Bayern Munich. This marks a troubling debut season for Alexander-Arnold at the Bernabeu, where injuries and poor form limit him to just 16 appearances. Despite providing a brilliant assist for Kylian Mbappe, he falters defensively, allowing Luis Díaz to score with ease. Keane criticizes this inconsistency, stating, “At this level, you can’t just switch off like that. It’s a childish mistake.” Fellow analysts Joe Cole and Steven Gerrard echo these sentiments, emphasizing Alexander-Arnold's lack of awareness on the pitch. Looking ahead, Alexander-Arnold maintains optimism for the next leg, claiming the team aims to win the competition. He acknowledges the need for improvement, stating, “We need to take the positives, learn from the negatives.” The pressure mounts as the Champions League knockout stage intensifies.
