- There’s been plenty of noise around Trent Alexander-Arnold’s performances for club and country over the past 12 months, but the man himself has maintained a cool head. Donning a retro shellsuit for FFT, the Merseyside maestro insists he still has lofty ambitions - none more so than becoming the best player in the world.
We spent an hour with him at a secret location in his hometown of West Derby where we talked about his ambitions at Liverpool, his role for England, and whether or not he could see himself managing one day.

I can't believe you guys brought in trent alexander-arnold! Good job guys! As a Liverpool fan and a long time viewer of this channel i love this so much 😂
it's "trent alexander-arnold". or just "alexander-arnold". even "trent" works. just not fucking "trent-alexander" tho
Can't believe they brought in Trent Arnold @@dragndorf9
@@dragndorf9 hey I was sleepy okay leave me alone 😭
@@dragndorf9 Before there was ANY football CZcamsr, there was FourFourTwo, why would it be a surprise that they brought in TAA?
Honestly I would not be bothered writing his whole name, just Trent or TAA or good enough
Wishing you a speedy recovery Legend! We need you. Great to see Trent here.
The idea of Trent being a creative outlet beside Rice as a deeper CM, with Belingham and Foden linking up with Kane... it's a bit exciting! 😍
If only southgate notices this 😅
With what you're saying the team would be a 3-2-4-1 which we all know couldn't work. I would love it too but international football doesn't work like that and imagine Trent being absolutely rinsed by Mbappe 😂😂. Overall I think England's best team is:
Pickford
White
Stones
Maguire
Shaw
Rice
Trent
Bellingham
Saka
Kane
Foden
That attack is the best attack in the world, you could see that being a Real Madrid level attack. 4 of the best in their position. Of course you would rather Foden play in his best position he isn't better than Bellingham and he isn't going down the right over Saka so he's got to play left wing. The midfield is incredible, Rice and Trent together is something you can only dream about and we've seen Trent's linkup with Saka, especially with his hat trick, it's like Trent and Salah's linkup.
@@Abcdhdbenfndnwhite???? Over Walker???
@@jamiemullane5065 yep. Walker isn't the same anymore, he's slower and his defending is worse. Like Trippier I think they're getting old. Ben White has been incredible for Arsenal this season, I would 100% play him over Walker and Trippier. Also Ben White and Saka combo would massively help England
Don’t forget Saka on the wing
class questions & class responses
great interview
A (really) nice interview. Would be perfect without the background noise
Great interview. Can see him playing an 8 in a few years.
Alonso will love him
Probably this year .. Connor Bradley is now the right back
*6
It feels weird seeing adam not behind a table and making crappy and class quips 😂
Amazing interview btw 🔥
With this being Klopp's final season at the club l can see this being Trent's final season as a inverted full back. Whoever the new manager will be to replace Klopp I'm fairly sure they'll move Trent into midfield permanently with a new right back being signed to cover/compete with Bradley
Uhhh you kinda forget about gomez. You good bro? 👀
@@hashshashiinme7656Gomez is the new milner swiss army knife, he will play where he has to. I like him at left back, he's been better than Robbo has been since he came back
Adam's a really good interviewer. Asks interesting questions, respects the space of who he's interviewing and does just the right amount of prodding. More of this please!
How that’s incredible… you guys have come so far this is well deserved. Congratulations 🥳
Come so far ? They were going when I was in school 😝 had interviews with the best in the world
They have been a leading published magazine for 30 years. They always interview famous footballers, maybe just not on CZcams.
fourfourtwo is nothing new, where have you been? ever been into a newsagent?
Brilliant mate, thanks for this!
Glad to hear from him. It's a really enjoyable interview. His potential is over the roof. Can't wait to see him back on the pitch.
Wow, great interview!
Trent Alexander-Arnold is unique. I hope we find a great manager for England so we don't put our magnificent generational talents like Harry Kane ,Jude Bellingham, Declan Rice and most notably Trent to waste. FOOTBALL MUST COME HOME.
Also foden
Fourfourtwo with some big moves, I knew yous were my fav CZcams footy account for a reason.
What a player........❤
I'm looking forward to seeing him return to the midfield position. ❤️
Englands most gifted player along side Bellingham and Kane. Southgate has to find a way for him in the starting XI
Shouldn’t be too hard really. He should be playing next to rice, in order to liberate bellingham up front. With saka or foden giving with on the right, and walker behind him, you could potentially have the best group of players in an area of any team in the world
@@IEPerez1994 Trent has only started in a midfield 3 one time at Liverpool in his whole career. So why should he be starting there for England with no experience?
@@TP-pq9xx his role wouldn’t change. Its still a double pivot. Bellingham’s positioning isn’t an issue here
@@TP-pq9xx obviously depends on what southgate would actually do, but this is what im picturing
Its 4231 with bellingham as the ‘10’, rice and trent the double pivot, and saka/walker as the rw/rb respectively. With kane up top, you have a collection of talent no one else can match
@@IEPerez1994 This sounds like a great setup which is why i'm sure Southgate won't do it 😂
many people dont know that he actuallt started out as a RM, which is this new role suits him so well
I remember him as more of a 6 for the youth team
Get well soon trent!!
Fair play mate
He is very quiet.❤
Bruh intro riff goes so hard !!
Nice guy, spoke to him on a flight too and then from Dubai a year or two ago.
Move Trent into the midfield fulltime ⛳
Honesty you can't drop Bradley right now, so moving Trent into midfield is the only way he starts atm, but that limits Dom and Salah. It's honestly extremely hard to pick that right side.
He isn't very press resistant
When xabi alonso come , i think trent could be become midfielder , bcoz bradley is ready took his side , what i see trent its the most acurated assist or pass in liverpool lately
and dont forget his also can score screamer outside the box what a player ❤
I do have a crush on him
Him n jude❤ 1:25
Best player in the world ❤❤
Top top player 🔥
Huge
Love your content, but what's wrong with the sound on this video?
Eg the microphones at 5:27, also the volume level seems quiet on this video in general. Hope in the future it will be back to standard
I like the shirt he's wearing.
Lads got confidence
Adam Clery you met my hero and I’m so jealous
Does it work though?
Trent needs to watch MAcAllister to see how.a real world class player plays in midfield.
MacAllister controls the game. Opens up spaces, with his little interchanges, and also puts a foot in and works hard.
0:19 can someone tell me this kit year? It's perfection.
W trent
This might be the first time I'm hearing TAA speak😅Seems like a nice guy tho
He's in some videos on CZcams. He's quite a chill guy
TAA is superb in both positions but in my opinion it should be either RB or CM and drop all of this inverted, false full back, shadow midfielder stuff because eventually goals will be conceeded due to TAA being out of position and the wide open right nack area will be exploited.
Pie de ángel
❤❤
maybe start there too?
Missing Trent esp on the Liverpool man city game
TREEENTY BENTYYY
Never saw someone this nervous since me on first dates 😂😂😂
Missed him vs city he would have whipped in balls to diaz and nunez all game thw amount of space walker left open during thw game
Do you guys think the background music is necessary?
I don't know why Klopp is playing him as inverted fullback
He should be a midfielder[no.8]
because as midfielder you need ball holding/retention skills and zone authority either through dribbling or defensive brilliance. TAA does best when he's given space and time on the ball, 2 things he will not get in the opponent's half against superior or competitive sides. He has good long passing skills but a MF also needs to work in tight spaces with sharp passing under pressure like Endo, Thiago, Macca do and even Hendo did, especially in Klopp's system where a positive turnover in possession happens at any time and in any situation on the pitch.
Not saying there is no possibility but we have not seen anything on the pitch to prove his worth over Sboz, Endo and the rest in MF role.
Obviously, we don't know if he displays it in training either. And let's be honest, Klopp is a whole smarter than the both of us when it comes to football. If he had seen it, he would have done it.
So the answer is No. He shouldn't be playing MF unless Klopp thinks otherwise, or he shows brilliant skills in the brief moments when he does roam into the role.
Background music is distracting from the conversation!
Trent dont look like he wanna be there at all😂 heads moving before his eyes in the beginning looked so fuming
Funny this season though he’s been the best English right back
Hiii ❤❤❤
He's a good footballer with no set position, bit like David Luiz.
Of all the versatile players you could have picked, you picked David Luiz
Trent must up his game no matter where he plays, RB or Mid. But I think it is best to accommodate his wish and play him in the mid. Stop the bullshit of inverted RB. So now Trent must compete with Macca and Dom, the starters as 8. Considering Endo's age, there's also possibility having Macca, Trent and Dom as trio Mid.
It will be even better if Trent learn from Macca about how a flair talented skillful technical super awesome player like Macca also working hard in defense.
Actually, unless a player already win Ballon D'or several times like Messi or C Ronaldo, then they must work their asses to defend. They must understand, that it is infuriating to see players lazying around or only interested in one aspect football.
When he was saying, "I think my playstyle is best suited for the middle of the pitch, and that's where you'll get the most out of me", that lowkey sounded like a chirp on Klopp and the coaching staff for not identifying his potential there earlier...
Klopp is very stubborn putting him in midfield wondering where he will play with the new manger
klopp has always wanted an engine room in midfield and i dont think this is TAA's strength at all. hence, the double pivot option. will be interesting to see what the next manager makes of the players that he will have to work with and how they fit them together. Whatever happens TAA is a hell of a player.
I wonder if Trent in the midfield could work for England
Football is a team sport so it doesnt matter whether TAA individually is better at RM if the team does worse overall. Putting trent in midfield required salah to change his game. Overall, the gambit worked, but you can see why Klopp didnt want to make that change until last season.
Also trent played RM as a youth player, and transitioned to RB as that's where klopp needed him. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but i think that curtis jones and szoboslai played different positons in the liverpool academy and leipzig respectfully before joining liverpool senior team.
How could u possibly
Think that sounds like a chirp lmao
👆 Trent 😮 ... Ohhhhhhhhh 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 ..
De Zerbi confirmed
If klopp doesn’t give Trent midfield positions more often we may lose the best footballer to ever wear a Liverpool shirt
Not the usual soiled pullover for this one?
Trent's had to sacrifice his numbers to play midfield
Is that Christian Eriksen ?
A way to get in the England squal😅
Why is the interviewer wearing that t-shirt? 💀
STYLE ISN'T HECTIC TRENT😮
I am one of a few fans who feel more safe and confident watching Liverpool game without TAA playing.
6-0?
Rice Trent Jude midfield pls😩
Liverpools defense is way better with Joe or Conor.. whether he is good enough to make midfield has to be seen, he is slowing down the game
You don’t watch Liverpool. He doesn’t slow down the game or make the team worse. The dude can score at any moment and hit a game changing 60 yard pass that only the likes of someone like Kroos or MoDRIC or Pirlo those types play. I agree that Bradley is a better defender and he’s amazing but you speak as if Trent is shit. He’s one of the best in the world his quality on the ball is unmatched from a defender, maybe Cancelo is 2nd
@@BasedHadrianthese people don't actually watch football, they just parrot what they see online or from whatever pundit on sky/BT. Players like Trent don't come around very often.
Forget Brighton Trent its Arsenal you need to study 😂
🏆🏆🏆🏆❌❌❌❌
Trent has a healthy ego 😂
To the FourFourTwo guys ... please ... please ... PLEASE can you do a review of the one dimensional, totally negative, no plan B, how to play your best players out of position, the old dinosaur David Moyesball who seems to think that he is a defensive minded mystro whilst the WHU fans think that he's a boring one trick pony who is ready for the glue factory?
Great talent !! But …….
How did it work? Did FSG Liverpool qualify for the UCL? No. Have they won anything with him in midfield? No. Alexander Arnold The Great has more help when he's in midfield but also in a more dangerous area and is prone to get exposed even more. He's better off being on the outside where the white line can help him. 🤣🤣🤣
Only thing u know is to cross and shoot
4-3😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
He knew he could do it in midfield because he knew that was his last resort.. he was getting shredded right and left by every half decent winger..
Maybe cause he isnt a defender?
Man city is his owner
Is it just me or does TAA always look stoned?
His eyes are wide open and clear. Completely the opposite of being stoned. His speech,however, is Scouse Mumble.
Klopp never put him in midfield fully and rightly so cos he has attributes lacking that. to use media now and get political in a title chasing year of klopps final year shows that he is not playing for the club and the team but himself. Shanks alway keep it behind closed doors.
I think he's referring to his England ambitions
@@tribalpeacock Do scouser sing the national anthem?
Dressed like a true scruff 😂😂😂
Is it because literally everyone said you were a midfielder and couldn't defend for shit? 🤣
He's so arrogant. He just about keeps it in check but he's got a massive insufferable ego. Honestly, hes a really poor defender, he's been our RB for 6 years now and never learned how to defend - making us weak and open to be attacked down the right flank...for years it was a massive weakspot. I'm sure they tried to teach him on the training ground but he's just too arrogant to be a real RB. Once Klopp developed Bradley properly, he was in the team (i know TAA was injured) but now that Kloop has seen what Bradley can do, Trent now finds himself NOT 1st pick in any position. And, he knows it too. He'd just better be the superstar midfielder he seems to think he is. I know he's a lovely footballer but something stinks about his attitiude. Laughing at Danns singing YNWA says all you really need to know about his arrogant ego.
Well you don't like him much! The man is being asked questions about himself and his impact on the team. How do you expect him to answer?
Funnily enough, I fully agree. Dude hasn't improved his defending in 8 years.
Why’s he getting played as a full back??? That’s the real question only debruyne makes more chances not his fault he’s not a defender is it? He’s has tried and has got better he was top of our balls won 1st half of the season he’s a midfielder end of
@@musayibghani3986 and what’s your coaching technique for 1to1defending ?bet you’ve never played a game in your life but listen to sky and talk shite opinions
Where’s the arrogance ? the lad is the most natural footballer England has he talks in this interview about helping the team he talks about his role evolving and adapting
well, now that we have a proper Right back. Trent can have me blessings to mode into the mid pitch and work his magic....
