Trent Alexander-Arnold has been impressing everyone with his performances for England and you have to attribute some credit to Lee Carsley who has been the first international manager to allow the Scouser to thrive.
Speaking with ITV, the interim manager said about our man: “I think Trent’s quality speaks for itself, I don’t see it that I’ve found a place for him, he’s more than earned his place.
“We do get bogged down with ‘left back, right back – where’s his position?’ But as long as he’s in an effective positions, he’s great to have with us.”

It was a shock to see our vice captain play left back for the first time in his career but it’s testament to his talents that he is deemed too good to not play.
Another player of the match performance illustrated that this trust has been well placed in our No.66.
