Trent Alexander-Arnold

[Irishnev]

The game has changed, it's faster and more athletic.

I wouldn’t play him in midfield - I’d rather we set up as we used to a few years back and gave him proper cover when he went forward

[frank the tank]

Ive been hoping that Jurgen would change something over the last few weeks to be honest.

Not just trent, but Robbo, Virgil, Fabinho and Henderson..... Have all been ****in garbage over the. Last few months. Plus we are short of midfielder depth.

I think 3 at the back with trent and Robbo wingbacks would be worth a look at

[wiw]

There were times in the first half where he was in the midfield and Konate was the cover.

whenever we had the ball to be honest - in build-up Fabinho and Trent were both 6.

Others are debating that in the Arsenal Away thread just now. An interesting thread on Twitter about Trent and Fab as a double pivot.

I was in row 5 of the SKD stand towards the Kop and the Xhaka challenge and Trent encouraging the crowd were right in front of us. After that, he was more energetic and seemed to have more fight in him although he did have to be careful not to pick up a second yellow.

What a performance, man of the match for me. Stepping into that role and playing his strengths actually works!!! What a shocker.

Yeah my MOTM as well. That said, I think I could have strolled around against that Leeds midfield with a can of beer in hand.

Very true but we also have lost to several **** teams this season including Leeds.

The transition has to start somewhere. It's like boxing, new talented boxers don't jump straight in with world class fighters.

He looked great, hope he keeps it up.

Great to see him look happy as well. It’s been a while since I’ve seen him smile.

Oh, I agree. Looked great, ran the game.

It obviously frees Hendo up but he was too advanced. System needs a tweak here or there but some signs of hope with it. But there'll be stearner tests, for sure.
