There have been calls for him to apologise from former players, while his manager, Unai Emery, acknowledged the need to say sorry.

“Yes [he should apologise]. We make mistakes, we need to apologise and we suggested for him to do that.

“He feels inside, very deep. It’s normal as a human. Every player needs the supporters’ support.”

What is the team news?

For Liverpool, 20-year-old goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher is likely to start.

“In this League Cup, it is Caoimhin’s competition,” coach Pepijn Lijnders explained. “As I said before the MK Dons game, with youth development, with these moments when they are in between the U23s and the first team, consistency is very important.”

Xherdan Shaqiri is still injured, as is Joel Matip and though Mohamed Salah’s ankle injury is nothing serious, he may be rested.

Teenager Harvey Elliot may play a part, too. “I think our squad is not big but it doesn’t make sense and it would really not be intelligent to make it even smaller by not using its strength, and one of its strengths in my opinion is the power of the youth with experience,” Lijnders said.

Xhaka has been left out of the Arsenal squad, but Mesut Ozil has been recalled, with Emery saying the club ‘need his quality and skill.’

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, David Luiz and Calum Chambers won’t be making the trip to Merseyside either.

Reiss Nelson continues to be unavailable with the knee ligament injury he sustained at the start of the month.
