Southampton defender Walker-Peters: Criticism won't affect Alexander-Arnold

Southampton defender Kyle Walker-Peters has rejected criticism of Liverpool fullback Trent Alexander-Arnold.

Walker-Peters has no doubts about Alexander-Arnold's quality.

“I've played with him a few times in the 21s and I know his quality. I mean he's shown it in the Premier League for the last 3-4 years now. You know, people are always going to comment on your performances," Walker-Peters said to TalkSPORT.

“As footballers we're used to it. I don't think it's affecting him to be honest, I know his character and I know he's just going to get on with things and prove people wrong.

"As I've said, he's shown everyone how good he is, so I don't doubt him."
