Former Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp says he turned off his television when he heard ers booing Trent Alexander-Arnold.
The 26-year-old defender is leaving the club at the end of the season and is expected to Real Madrid.
Alexander-Arnold arrived at the club aged six and was a key component in Liverpool's success under German Klopp, which included a first league title in 30 years in 2019-20.
However after announcing his decision to not sign a new contract, some fans turned against the player and some booed him when he came off the substitutes bench against Arsenal earlier this month.
Speaking at a fundraising event for the LFC Foundation on Friday, where he brought along a signed Alexander-Arnold shirt to auction, the ex-manager said ers were "wrong" to boo and launched a ionate defence of the England full-back.
"I don't want to tell you what you have to think. I can tell you what you think is wrong," Klopp said.
"I don't tell you you should not be angry, you should not be disappointed, I tell you don't forget. This club doesn't forget.
"I watched the game when he came on and I heard the booing. I switched the telly [television] off. Honestly, I could not have been more disappointed at this moment."
And he highlighted the Liverpool-born player's commitment to the club and his best moments during Klopp's spell as manager.
"He gave absolutely everything and wears the Liverpool badge in the skin," he said.
