Jenas believes that fans will initially be angry, but he thinks they will eventually understand Alexander-Arnold's decision. He points out that Steve McManaman, a former Liverpool player, left the team on a free transfer to Real Madrid and had great success there.

McManaman is still loved by Liverpool fans for his contributions during his time with the team, even though he is not considered in the same class as legendary players like Jamie Carragher and Steven Gerrard. Jenas thinks that the anger towards Alexander-Arnold is a sign of how much he has impacted the fans and the team.
