Trent Alexander-Arnold was an instrumental creative presence as Liverpool secured a 2-0 win over Sheffield United at Bramall Lane.

The Academy graduate registered an assist for the opening goal of the evening, supplying Virgil van Dijk’s clinical finish in the first-half of action.

The 25-year-old registered 115 touches against Chris Wilder’s men, recording a further 7 key passes and creating three big chances, according to Sofascore.

A superb creative showing

Against a well-organised opponent, that’s a rather impressive showing from a player who is increasingly becoming the creative heartbeat of this new-look Liverpool side.

It’s surely only a matter of time before the floodgates open and we tear an opponent apart courtesy of either the fullback’s final ball or pre-assist.

He’ll have another go at a likely low block from Roy Hodgson’s Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park this coming Saturday,

With us in this kind of mood, however, you’d back Jurgen Klopp and Co. to find a way through.
