Trent Alexander-Arnold

[eeyore]

The fucking man

[magicrat]

Given he had Sane to mark I think it was he best ever game for us and was MOM 

[Oh Buoy]

Love the little beaut.

 

In all seriousness, he's been targeted a lot over the last week or so. Tonight was a real mature and professional performance from the lad. Sane is a horrible player to keep quiet and he never looked like scoring despite the few drives he made. A sensational performance and a real pleasure to see him learning and moving few precious errors.

 

He's got all the tools and is a brilliant lad. We'll be behind him no matter what - made us all proud tonight and was a pleasure to watch.

 

Sane has never seen a pocket so deep.

[ZonkoVille77]

great game tonight. Nice one.

[Boss]

Loved the bit in injury time where he was screaming at the rest of the lads "COME ON!". He was imperious tonight against every fullbacks worst nightmare. 

[G Richards]

The athletic gifts the lad has were all on display against a fast and skillful player, but the defensive nous was also there for everyone to see. Take a bow, and I would give him MOM, especially as he had such a tough assignment against Sane. 

 

Both TAA and Gomez have made a few mistakes (the seasoned pros also have to be fair) but they are now that much better for being trusted to play. They have both grown enormously and we do not need a new right back. Not at all. 

 

I go back and forth on who should get the nod. TAA back in pole position after tonight!

Tonight shows he has it in him and consistency will take time to develop. The team defended and attacked as one and when that happens, there clearly aren't many teams that can live with them. Well played, Terence.

Not sure about that, he was terrific tonight but has been terrible lately and still has a lot of work to do to become first choice for us but he's young and hopefully tonight will boost his confidence tenfold.

Pure concentration and great decision making. Superb

Excellent performance that, what a way to bounce back after the Palace game!

[Tourt]

The fucking man

Listened on R5.

 

Commentators made him MOM.

 

"Recovery" and "delivery" most frequently used descriptions of his performance.

 

Robbie Savage used "incredible " every time "The Fucking Man"t was involved.

 

Chuck Norris never died, he took-up playing football.

[Sweeney287]

His reaction around 85 minutes or so said how much the clean sheet meant and how much he was up to the challenge of keeping it.

 

The criticism he had received recently had been a little harsh as he is learning but what a performance from the lad tonight.

[Aventus]

Needs to be taken out of the spotlight as he's getting destroyed lately, god help him against Sane.

God help Sane against our lad Trent.

[Anubis]

Great game tonight. Sane's a tough opponent and Trent barely gave him an inch.

Superb tonight the lad.

Great to see some positive updates on this thread. Think the criticism aimed at him from fans and media alike has been way over the top. He's been negatively involved both at Utd and Palace, but not nearly as bad as has been made out. In all of the situations he's been given stick for I would lay the blame equally as much at Matip's and Lovren's door. Even van Dijk/Henderson/Robertson did poor jobs in those situations. He's been scapegoated because he's actually made the effort to match Rashford/Zaha when they've tried to run in between the RB/CB.

 

Anyway, onwards and upwards! Fantastic performance tonight!!

[AngryOfTuebrook]

I'm telling everyone, if you want some perspective on this, watch last Saturday's MOTD to see how good Sane really is.

 

Trent made him look a bit poo.

[No2]

Exceptional performance from him tonight, top class player in the making. He made mistakes against Utd and Palace but you have to remember he's a kid who won't have faced football like that too often. At underage level nobody plays the hoof to the big man for a flick on, its quite possible he never encountered stone age football before facing up to Jose and Roy's tactics. Everything he's done so far suggests he will learn and improve quickly.

Let's hope he doesn't play on Saturday then.

[SOFTLAD]

Just simply thank you TTA Nae doubts

when you're so solid never not a fucking smell tonight, fully committed!

[moof]

He’s a special talent. He’s not even a right back and he’s putting in performances like that in the champions league quarter final against one of the best teams on the planet, at the age of 19.

 

We’ve got a gem on our hands

[Heinze]

Someone has already updated his wikipedia entry haha.

 

On the 4th April 2018, Trent started against Manchester City in the quarter finals of the Champions League, in a 3-0 win.^[29] He was praised for his ability to nullify Man City star Leroy Sané throughout the game, and was voted Man Of The Match by many.

What’s his natural position?

[Jose Jones]

He's a right back, he's played every match for the first team at right back and he looks good at right back.
