    Thats like saying a striker has to be fast to get in behind the defence. NO! It depends on the system you are playing and the role the manager has asked you to play. Liverpool have scored 2 or more goals in 17 games straight and have lost 1 game in the last 28. TAA has 38 asissts for liverpool. His primary job is not defending it's creating chances.

    Trent isn't a bad defender as much as he is so far up the pitch in an attacking roll he can't track back fast enough.....You need a DM with quality and speed to cover how Trent plays, or VVD....Klopp thinks, well he might not get back on occasions BUT how many goals does he create??

    James has shown recently that he's capable of playing in midfield, and Trent's defensive issues could be offset by playing Walker in a 3 ATB. So could definitely have all 3 of them in the same side. That might seem like building the team around TAA, but when you've got one of the best crossers in the world, why not?

    Have to correct Gary here, Trent did not end up at RB 'by accident' (like Gerrard did when he broke into the Liverpool squad), but actually spoke to his coaches a couple of seasons before his debut and identified the RB position as the one he was most likely to be able to progress into the first team quickest. They then changed his position in the youth teams and focussed his training on being an attacking RB, so it's very much by design

    IMO Trent should play CM/CDM in a 3 where he has someone like rice or Phillips or Bellingham to do his dirty work. Trent passing can be world class but defensively there are holes in his game. We should play a back 3 with Walker on the right side with James as RWB. Stick Trent in the midfield where he has people behind him so he’s less exposed and I think he could be a key player.

They completely bottled it in the final versus Italy and Croatia exposed them in the semifinal. Southgate is a melt; he’s a PR man who says the right things and ticks lots of boxes but is not a winner. These are players in his image - a pack of cowards. Trent is very good attacking but gets exposed by a decent, determined winger / forward, such as Martinelli. Micah Richards forgot to mention the best right-sided fullback of the last decade - Lahm of Bayern Munich and Germany. He could defend and attack brilliantly.

Trent can cross and hit free kicks. That's it. Have never seen him track back, he can't tackle, gets outmuscled in the air, is ball watching at set pieces and relies on Van Dijk to bail him out. Attacking wise he is great but defensively he is a huge liability. You can't claim to be the absolute best when one part of your game is bang average.
