Liverpool defender Trent Alexander-Arnold tells Football Focus presenter and ex-pro Liam MacDevitt about the sacrifices he had to make to get into football, the different pressures he faces at the top of the game and why he's set up 'The After Academy' for those players who didn't make the grade.

There is still lot's of grounds and levels Trent will definitely reach and aspire in his football game. Well thought out and spoken about his breakout from the football academy.

He's in quite a unique position, I see him in the same vein as Gerrard except Gerrard had pressure his whole career to win everything with Liverpool, Trent does not have that he has already done it, because of this I can probably see him staying at Liverpool his whole career in alot more certainty than I did with Gerrard.

This young man is only going to get better and better with a mentality like this in life!! ❤❤❤❤

How To Be Simply Saved. 1. The bad News. We are sinners. (Romans 3:23.) We deserve to be punished in hell for our sins. 2. The Good News. Jesus Christ who is God’s Son died on the cross for all of your sins. He was buried & rose again to give you eternal life in heaven as a free gift. (1 Corinthians 15:3-4. Romans 6:23.) 3. How am I saved? Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved. (Acts 16:31.) 4. Once saved, always saved. Jesus said in John 6:47. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life. Do you believe that you are saved by grace and promised heaven because Jesus died for you? Yes/No

@@ThrottleBody it didn't need to be 'shitloads', just a glance a few times a minute for the sake of healthy respectful polite engagement and social reciprocity. Trent though looks at him maybe twice or three times in the space of ten minutes. Perhaps in fairness he's got social anxiety or he's shy, though, I know what that's like. Sometimes it's difficult to force yourself to engage on that level, but it's really important to make other people feel heard.

Have a look at the situations where Trent’s defending had been “bad” and ask yourself … why is he isolated? Why have the midfield completely overladed ball side and left him exposed? Oh Trent’s defending is bad? What part of his defending? His tackling? No, that’s actually good. 1 on 1s? Again, he’s fine at 1 on 1s. Positioning? Well his positioning is often bad, but he is an attacking defender so it’s not really possible for him to be in two places at once, this says more about Klopp’s stubbornness than Trent’s defending. Before jumping onto a bandwagon do the research yourself. Look at the situation YOURSELF, not with the analysis of pundits who are being paid to give contentious opinions as this encourages user interaction and therefor boosts ad revenue. Try having your own opinion, it’s actually far more intellectually stimulating. Challenge the opinions you do hear, rather than blindly following them because “this guy won a premier league, he must know what he’s talking about” yes he does, but he’s not paid to tell the truth, he is paid to make Sky/BT etc money.

Hes not even that bad in defence, He's back where he belongs now. The heart of that Liverpool midfield. Baller. 🔴
