Alisson Becker - 7.0
Could do little for the goal, if unsighted. Looked angry, and seemed more vocal with Virgil not directing traffic.
Trent Alexander Arnold - 8.5
What a goal. A tough game to really expose Newcastle, but his quality was assured throughout. A goal saving challenge to cement a great game at both ends. Again,...
The position of fullback has perhaps seen the biggest evolution over the last few decades, especially at Anfield. The current versions are an attacking force of nature, with Andy Robertson’s endeavour and willing a delight to behold. On the opposite flank, Trent Alexander Arnold has become an absolute revelation, and sits firmly as the...
Robbie Fowler, Steve McManaman, Michael Owen, Steven Gerrard, Jamie Carragher and Trent Alexander Arnold all graduated through the Liverpool academy. The success of each is part of the clubs illustrious history, and it is always a joy to see homegrown talent succeed as Liverpool players.
Within any historical football club, there are times when talent...
Alisson Becker - 7.5
Mistakes will come now and again, but the world's best stopper showed a commanding presence in a routine display.
Trent Alexander Arnold - 9.5
Sensational. The teams primary playmaker is transcending the fullback position. Any manager in world football (club football anyway) would have this man over any other, and his domination of...
Andy Robertson's place in Liverpool's starting line-up is under intense scrutiny. Over the past few weeks, maybe even the past couple of months, the calls for Kostas Tsimikas to replace him have grown progressively louder.
Before the season began, I'd argue that the only position up for debate in Liverpool's strongest XI was centre-forward, but...
Alisson Becker - 7.0
I hope he enjoyed the show. The disallowed goal was one of his few moments in a quiet game.
Trent Alexander Arnold - 9.5
The best right back in world football continues to show his amazing talent and outrageous delivery. Two assists and a brilliant setting of game tempo in the first half,...
I recently watched the remake of the Magnificent Seven, a modern take of the original classic. The film revolves around impossibly unrealistic scenarios, a suicide squad of unlikely heroes, with a battle to overcome the odds and succeed.
The plot of the film is ridiculous, how the movie then plays out absurd, but the idea...
To even consider that Trent Alexander-Arnold was to be omitted from England’s summer competition, is quite astounding. There are few players in the world football that can deliver a ball with his precision and assist in such audacious ways. Gareth Southgate inevitably saw sense, though that tournament was taken away by a cruel injury...
As news of Trent's injury on England duty final settles in, anxieties around his team mate Jordan Henderson and his fitness as Euro 2021 looms.
The quad tear suffered by Liverpool's number 66 rules him out of the first few weeks of pre-season in a hammer blow for the right back.
In the drama surrounding Southgate's...
On the surface, the signing of Kostas Tsimikas really hasn't worked out for Liverpool.
Signed from Olympiacos in the summer of 2020, the Greek left-back -- whose acquisition was aimed at giving Andy Robertson the opportunity to rest -- only made seven appearances in all competitions in his first season on Merseyside.
Meanwhile, Robertson played in...
