Curtis Jones’ recent behaviour has caused concern among fans
The incident at full-time against Wrexham is not the first time Jones’ conduct has attracted scrutiny, with a series of recent occurrences causing growing concern among the Liverpool faithful.
Reports previously pointed toward a rift between Jones and manager Arne Slot over playing time and tactical setup during periods of last season.
Furthermore, fans pointed back to Liverpool’s final match of last season against Brentford.
After finding the back of the net, Jones notably refused to celebrate, instead walking back toward the center circle with a muted expression.
