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.

First
Already a bonafide legend!
Top lad Trent
What a special player on and off the pitch ❤️
real one
Hats off
Honestly my idol love him so much ☝🏼❤️
WORLD CLASS (NOT DEFENSIVELY )
No words to describe how much i love and respect him ❤
I support arsenal but love what Liverpool produces from young kids to legends of the game 👊🏾❤️💯
It’s nice to see him more comfortable and candid in an interview. Definitely shows he’s comfortable with Liam. Great interview.
lil bro sitting next to trent like its a date lol
Come back this time next year and this lad will have broken the Premier League assist record when he's in the midfield (in a single season). Guys class and playing where he belongs.
Bro is assisting players on and off the pitch
love him
Trent bro as a man who’s trying to build his own mental health support organisation for men thank you for raising awareness of the topic. I’d love to work or get any advice off yourself or others. I’m taking the steps to ensure I do everything right to provide the support needed for men and lads fighting depression and low self worth. Keep the conversation going and again mate any advice you have will be massively appreciated
Top, Top, Top, Top and Top lad that's how Klopp would have put it. And the way, manner, style and rhythm that he playing and gaining in his football career is immense. 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.
I really want to see Trent, Bellingham and Declan Rice playing for Liverpool. They're young, dynamic, lots of potential and entertaining to watch them.
It'll never happen though.
I've seen a gta characters look like the man on the right
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.
So proud of Trent. An incredible athlete but more importantly an incredible human being. He lives and breathes the true meaning You’ll Never Walk Alone.
Next LFC Captain
Trent showing empathy for his colleagues from the Academy is huge. Proud of you, mate! I hope I can see you as a Liverpool Captain in the future. YNWA
Great interview!!
Doesn’t seem like that pressing an issue? Sorry to be a dick because his intentions are good but if we’re feeling sorry for people not making it as professional athletes where does it really end? Give your money to a charity imho
