Trent ALEXANDER-ARNOLD: 2020/21

Plot twist, he’s taking him as the backup left winger so he can cut in and shoot if they’re struggling after 85 minutes.

Maybe thick cunt Gareth has just realised that Trent Alexander Arnold is just one player.

Fourthly he won’t be coached by southgate.

The whole drip feed via the media is nauseating. Football has fallen so so much.

FFS this has been a circus of epic proportions. I’ve had arguments all day about Trent and how people somehow seem to think Reece is a better player than he is. Clueless bunch of dots arent they?I feel bad for Trent, i hope he isnt too badly affected by all this shite.

He’s still star dazed by Hendo, no worries. :wink:

Fact is that James and TAA should both be going then it’s between Walker and Trippier. Here I favour Walker simply because he can also play as an emergency CB. Harsh on Trippier, maybe, but he would have known what the odds were…

Trippier lacks the added advantage of bringing female entertainment.

Would have been poor not to take him, as I said he is different from the other three.

all 4 RBs are confirmed IN including Trent (never in doubt really)

would have preferred him not to be selected tbh
an extended summer break, with his feet up, taking it easy
would have done him and Liverpool FC the world of good

He would have been gutted to have missed out and it would have seriously affected his morale. When he was left out last time I thought it would be good for him. He wasn’t playing well and he needed the extra motivation, but last few weeks he’s been brilliant both in attack and defence. Proved himself again as one of the world’s best. No doubt he was going to be picked.

I’m more concerned with Hendo going to be honest.

looks like hendo is being picked purely for his influence in the group/dressing room (from what I heard of the southgate press conference). I hope he doesn’t play and injure himself again

This has been the dumbest fucking story.

Trent left out of a meaningless round of games in favour of alternatives who hadnt been playing as much, which was a totally reasonable way of sensibly using your players. The press report this means Southgate wont take him in the final squad and Southgate gets slated as if that was true and the decision had already been made. Southgate then does the obvious thing and picks Trent.

It’s just been 2 months of teeth gnashing over something that was unlikely to happen and didn’t happen

It was leaked that he was being left out, it caused an uproar and then they changed their minds.

or they leaked on purpose just to generate attention and interest in what would otherwise be an a team roster that very few really cared about… while planning to take Trent the whole time.

Do you really believe that?

Yeah, but they are unnecessarily putting the spotlight on a single (or a couple of players), rather than building a naturally cohesive squad.

I just hope that TAA takes all these crap in strides, get a few assists, score a few goals that Kane cannot claim on his daughter’s life, and put up an excellent defensive display to shut them all up.
