Unfortunately, the No.66’s return to action came at the expense of what could be a serious injury for Liverpool’s deputy right-back Conor Bradley.
The ‘magnificent’ (as described by Robbie Fowler via TNT Sports) Northern Irishman seemed in some discomfort after a battle with Eberechi Eze and had to be escorted off the pitch by a couple of physios.
Trent Alexander-Arnold is coming on for Conor Bradley who has hurt himself in a tackle on Eberechi Eze.
The Northern Ireland defender earns a standing ovation as he hobbles off. https://t.co/KCrpk3DMJ6

Did Crystal Palace end Liverpool’s title challenge
We don’t want to be reactionary in our analysis of our 1-0 home defeat to Oliver Glasner’s Crystal Palace.
That said, it’s extremely difficult to see how we manage to restore momentum at such a pivotal stage of the season having handed Arsenal an opportunity to go three points clear at the top of the table.
Bear in mind Manchester City have already secured a two-point advantage with their 5-1 hammering over Luton Town at the weekend.
Only six opportunities left in the league… and our rivals haven’t forgotten how to string a pass together.
