The SCARY Truth About Trent Alexander-Arnold Nobody is Noticing 

In attacking terms TAA is better than every RB but constant comparison with Kyle Walker ,Tripper,Reece James made people think that he isnt that great as a RB.

I always thought of Trent as like the next David Beckham. Great crossing, corner, nice free kick and long range strike and very good passing all around

"Corner taken quickly " gave me goosebumps. A modern classic moment

Trent has always said he prefers to play in centre midfield and now klopp is finally playing him there we are now seeing how good he really is he's arguably the best passer of the ball in the world right now

Trent is always in the comparison discussion, he has set the bar so high that no matter what when the RB discussion is brought up you can’t not mention him. He still has so many years in top flight. He has a scarily high ceiling, exciting to see what his peak looks like.

As you said, every fullback will strugle against fast, tricky wingers; Its normal honestly. But with Trent there's also an agenda from some people to make him look bad,like he was criticized for being beaten in the air by Mitrovic. Yeah, that small, weak Mitrovic. If you're not Dan Burn, how do you defend that? Let's get back to positives now; Trent is having a superb season now, defensively I mean. But there's no talk about that. Great video, keep it up!

One of my favourite player. His corner against Barca was pure genius

Trent is the only right back ever to play chess against a Grand Master. He didn't win, of course but try and beat him. The famous corner was not "taken quickly". Almost everyone in the ground was sold the idea that Shaqiri was going to take it, including me, almost everyone around me. Klopp and Henderson, who was only 20 yards away, both had their backs to the goal and missed it completely. It took five seconds for the crowd realise we'd scored and the question on everyone's lips was "what just happened?" Like half the people there, I didn't appreciate exactly what had happened until I was watching the slo-mo dissections three days later. He may have a wand of a right foot but smarts are his main weapon. And the idea that his defence is poor is not really born out by the Opta stat machine. He's an excellent right back when that's his job. It just isn't always his job.

everyone is getting so hung up on his ability as a RB. but forgetting about his ability that he can bring to the team as a whole. it’s criminal he doesn’t play internationally more often

He’s one of my fave players of all time . I get excited everytime he gets the , from the right back position!!! That says it all right there , when a player gets you excited to do something magnificent from so far away from the oppositions goal

Nice summary of TAA. Regarding his bad spell last year, I personally feel something was going on in his private life for a bit. He would sometimes appear with dark bags under his eyes, and not 100% in the situation. Whatever the real story is, for a young man representing Liverpool FC and required to be a role model for the club 24/7, and maintain peak physical condition every single day since he was a kid, without getting himself into any kind of trouble, while simultaneously being filthy rich and surrounded by peer pressure, women, drugs, alcohol, gambling etc, is quite incredible to be honest. And I love that he has stayed loyal to the club that nurtured and educated him.

The understanding between Trend and Mane was unreal too

Ever since Trent, everybody wanted to have “The best RB” and that says it all really

He’s having a fantastic season

Trent Alexander Arnold has been the best right back in the world for so many years and he’s been playing well at a top level for so many years. As a right back he has 100 G/A for club and country and at the age of 25 he’s won everything there is to win at Liverpool and along with his teammate Andy Robertson has the joint most assists out of any defender in the premier league. From an attacking perspective he’s a great right back because it’s rare to see a player in his position play beautiful crosses passes create chances regardless of where he is on the pitch whether he’s in the middle from deep or out wide and he even scored bangers from outside the box. Liverpool from 2018-2020 were an elite team and his performances were a foundation for their success and he at the right back position was like an extra midfielder for them as he delivered loads of assists and provided a lot of service for his teammates. After last season where he wasn’t quite at his very best and Liverpool as a whole struggled, a lot of people pushed an agenda that Trent Alexander Arnold wasn’t a world class right back because he couldn’t defend and that’s a narrative that’s been pushed around him basically saying that he’s overrated not as good as you think he is and gets too much hype because of English bias. Defensively he’s not bad he’s ok, the problem is that he’s not a player that you would want against excellent wingers like Vinicius Junior Jeremy Doku Kaoru Mitoma Gabriel Martinelli and others and he is capable of winning/costing Liverpool games. Going forward he is very reliable to a team, but when we try to debate on who’s the best fullback in the world we have to remember that not just Trent Alexander Arnold guys like Kyle Walker Reece James Kieran Trippier Joao Cancelo Ben White Achraf Hakimi and others have their own strengths and weaknesses. He’s a player that cannot be dropped as from an attacking perspective he’s very useful and helps Liverpool create chances and get forward very well, but defensively is a whole different story for him. Based off of the profile and what your manager needs, he’ll be an asset for a team and this time around this season, he’s back to his blistering best and he’s a right back/hybrid midfielder and this could help him cement his place as a starter in the England national team because he is their most creative player in that midfield and he’s been playing as a right back throughout his career. Personally I don’t think he’s an overrated player, he divides a lot of opinion, and a lot of very good fullbacks like Marcelo Dani Alves Roberto Carlos and some were great going forward but none of them were criticized for their defensive shortcomings and I think Trent Alexander Arnold at right back can reach his true potential even without being defensive minded due to his output in that position and his unique style of football. He is a perfect modern day right back.

Trent isn't a bad defender, its the system Klopp plays that exposes his position. He basically is turned into a winger in attacks. In Liverpools system player's like Hendo would cover him. When the midfielders fail to track back that position is left exposed. Any team that target's that specific position will get opportunities. Its risk and reward and Liverpool have reaped the rewards more often.

something i noticed is that trent is usually blamed for the madrid goal in the final, but when I looked at it properly you can see that trent has to pay attention to kroos aswell so he can't focuse only on vini

Trent massively benefited from balance that Pool had with Andy on the left. Andy is best LB in Prem history and Trent is well on his way to being the best RB in Prem history if he can defend better in the future.

Trent has too much class. You just earned a subscriber. 🤝🏽

Trent is a very good playmaker and can block the ball but with 1v1s he is inconsistent with his defending.

TAA is a monster, i think in terms of his defending it has been a mixture of form and also formation. currently running with a fluid formation in the back of 4 at the back which can turn into a 3 when the fullbacks push up TAA joins the midfield.

Trent has been my favorite Liverpool player for a few years now. his talent with the ball is unmatched in the Premier League. I was also fortunate enough to see him play at Anfield, where he created 3 beautiful assists for Mane in the 5-0 win over Watford. Yes, the same game mentioned in the video at minute 6:55!!! :)

Great vid the one thing I'm missing is the fact that Trent is the only player ever to assist teammates from every position.(Completing this with Alissons header from a corner) It's interesting and definitely a record that he won't have to share with many players.

Loving the videos man!

Your videos are really interesting man, thanks for your work!

I still don’t understand why they don’t play him as a midfielder , he is class there , he always has a stellar performance at cm but still plays rb

Good job brother Keep it up you’ll be famous one day I swear ❤❤❤

He's growing!!! 21 one can not ask for more! Enjoying him play n the term!!

Trent currently a player of the season contender for me let's see second half of the season

Trent is impressive by how easily he can make in impact in matter of second. Wether it will be his reading ability of the game and make smart passes or his ability to look at his attackers and give long beautiful balls that catch opposition by surprise and causes goals. Very true he lacks defensive tactics but when he’s in the offensive side he’s a player that is dangerous.

Great video. Your point about "what type of defender does your team need?" is absolutely perfect. A defensive minded fullback does not suit Klopp's Liverpool. But Trent is the building block of what Klopp wants to do.

This season I think his game defensively has improved loads, I believe now we have fresh legs in the midfield it's not leaving RB exposed as before leaving him with room and space to drift central.

What no way I’m barley see ur channel Awesome video! Great topic! New sub ✌️

Love this guy carnt wait for trent to be back playing x ❤️ x ❤️ x ❤️

big ups fam, great vids

what a great video, youve earned a subscriber bro

Trent was never the issue, evryone knew his strenght and weaknesses. Our problem was that he cant do both at the highest level, one would suffer either way however now his role have changed. With players to cover him when he moves forward the biggest diffrence last year. In addition his hybrid role make it clear that his responsibility defence is expekted less in return more creativity forward. His once in a life time talent is finally being how it should be. I love the summer transfer window, it has gotten the best out of Trent and the entire team❤

Totally agreed, I personally think that, it is totally unfair and bias for not playing him regularly at the three lions right back or right midfield position. He is as good as half of the Gareth Southgate's current squad.

Solid video man! You should do a video on Rodrygo as well. I feel as if he's overshadowed by Vini but this year he is definitely kicking into a new gear. His composure on the ball and in front of goal is immense and is still improving

This is how fans are. They praise you on winning and curse you like you never been a winner when you lose.

Great video 🔥

nice video man

Just say you're a Liverpool fan, don't ever compare TAT with Dani, Marcelo, or Zanetti. They KNEW their role as defenders

He is an attack-minded midfielder having played there throughout his youth career. The kids mind works in different way and he is underrated & overhated.

I dont think he’s inconsistent at defense. He’s a good defender. Otherwise he would not be a Champions League and Premier League winner. I hate the slander he gets. He’s one of the best in his position of all time.

Brilliant video.new sub

I think he is by far the most Technical England Player. No England player had as much technique as him that's for sure.

Not just hardworking, he's also smart. YNWA Trent

Amazing work

Future looking bright bro, hope your channel grows quickly 🤞

If the 'Pool can get a solid right back then he will move into the midfield - looks like he will be in that position for the national team.

Good video tbf 👍🏽 got a sub

Happy new year bro

If Liverpool get a more " traditional " RB then trebt can permanently play in the RCM position . He will be more efficient and control games much more strongly . This was the Hendo position and he can also run on the overlaps .

Trent. 😍

Underrated my faveotite player

👏🏿 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿what a video

Defensively he's been great this season. He seems to have really matured into the role

Usually cant have it all in any position/player. Look at R9 injury prone but the most lethal player to every play. Sergio Ramos a spectacular defender but a massive temper. Messi is short and can’t really jump over a defender to head the ball. CR7 not the greatest passer. You have to take the good with the bad. With special players you just have to put someone there to cover their deficiencies. Van Dijk and Henderson to help him defend. Ozil and Alonso to pass, Pique and Puyol to head the ball, etc.

nice commentary

Everyone criticises him as a RB but he brings way more to the team and the game than that. He's dynamic and can read the game like no other, hence why he's magic to watch.

Imo the best Trent’s position is in midfield (no shit) with license to roam around. He was a different beast when like last 10 games last season (if I am not mistaken) when he was given that role to roam around all over the pitch. His stats went crazy in that short period

He should play as RWB or RM maybe even RW

Trent is the goat 🐐

Trent was not moved from RM to RB for the academy, he was a CM for the academy, he got played at RB by klopp

2:08 😂😂😂

Trent only needs to be aware of his surroundings when defending. He mostly focuses on where the ball is and who has it than checking if there is anyone behind him freely in a good position waiting a pass or cross to come his way. That is his weakness and why the likes of Vinicious jnr managed to score from his position. Take your head up, look at your right, left and back. Scan your surroundings and you're good to go. If Trent can do this, No one wil criticize him. He is already the best RB in moder day football. But as a liverpool fan myself i want to see him work on that.

i actually got him to 95 overall in career mode, shows his potential in game too

good vid but i didn’t come to this video to learn about his come up i already knew that, i came to see what he’s doing that no one’s noticing

As a Liverpool fan I’ll admit he is not the greatest defender at times, but when it comes to attacking play and creation no other fullback can do what he can do. I think if Liverpool can officially let him be a center mid, along with a new more defensive fullback we can really watch him wave his magic wand of a leg.

Trent's relatively poor acceleration is his major weakness defending at RB.This is not something that can be fixed.He knows it,hence his lacklustre performances at RB.He want's to be a midfielder,so let him be that.

The thing is the value that he bring for attacking is way too big for him to get substituted

I know this is about TAA, but when talking about the Liverpool defence, how does Andrew Robertson not get a mention, his work rate is phenomenal in that position.

Trent has to change his position He will be one of the best as a midfielder ngl

He is generational

Basically he's a fifa rating 90 attacking but a fifa rating 70 defensively

He's flying now

One great defender I remember from years ago is Dennis Irwin, although Man Utd, he was an awesome player who was also a right back I think, but he could knock in some real rockets from far out.

He is the best passer of the ball in the Premier league, and he had gotten better at defending recently.

The individual awards speak for themselves in comparison to any other fullback in epl history. Greatest rack back in epl history

He can be criticized for his performance as an RB. No doubt. But even he had good moments as a defender this season, his offensive appearances are on a whole other level. He really can change a game for the REDs. Look at the FA Cup against arsenal. A vice captain for a reason.

He's good as a central midfielder too

Roberto Carlos and Marcelo were also seen as a defensive liability even tho were the best in the world as LB. That being said, they ALWAYS made it worth by their ability and other characterstics while in possession.

He is good in crossing the ball and free kicks but he still need to have more sense of urgency and quick reflexes when defending near goal.

Because most people don’t know much about football . It’s also a very partisan viewpoint. The defensive liability tag is not his fault. When he goes forward the other 3 defenders should position themselves as a standard 3 at the back and move slightly to the right and spread out a little more to cover him. KONATE now able to do this job so TAA lately Is more able to influence the game more in an attacking way

if Trent just locks in on defense he no doubt the greatest to play that RB position.. hopefully we win the EPL this season! #YNWA 🏆

putting him full-time into midfield makes him a better defender, keeps him close to the action, closer to the ball.

Contrevesal opinion : Trent is the best attacking Rb after cafu

His long passing and crossing is just like Beckham. He needs to be played at right mid

Liverpool have the best defensive record in the league. Nuff said.

In fact Trippier got hat trick of assists vs sheffield 0-8 game this season😅. But it doesn't change the fact that Trent is absolutely unbelieveble

Liverpool players are underrated! We need Supporter medias that RM does, imagine if Trent was RM player these RM fans would claim Trent should win Ballondor 😂! It’s propaganda and media! Let’s go Trent to beat them all! We are Reds! Ynwa

if you can't see the greatness - your loss. If you know, you know.

Last season, he wasn't a good defender but this season imo he was solid defending idk why y'all underestimate him

😢Trent has one of the best attacking abilities in the world

What is with all these amazing English players all of a sudden? You should do a vid on Deli-Ali. the superstar that never was. Or how about a vid on bellingham. Everyone else is talking about him? Why not you? :)

i think he should stay as a RM he will be better version of himself as a play maker the amount of assists u will see from him will be insane he should have the chance but not in onw match like a whole season he will have his ups and downs but trust me it will better seloution and then any aggreseve RB will fill the space in the defence

Trent play better at right back he sees the game differently when he play there going in midfield will decrease his crossing ability

Trent’s first premier league game was in 2016. Let that actually sink in for a minute Dude has been at the highest level for almost a decade. Crazy

💯👌👏
