Why Trent is PERFECT for his New Role at Liverpool

What is people's obsession with reece james, i get hes a very good rb but come on trent is utterly world class and james is injured 90% of the time and also makes mistakes that people just seem to ignore?

I think he just needs to work on his ball control I'm the summer and he could be a serious option in the 6 for Liverpool. This is not to say he doesn't have good ball control, it's just the midfield is a different beast especially when you come from a position like right back that has so much space infront of you. Because with film teams will start trying to get tighter to him and man mark him etc. So he has to know this before it happens and develop the traits guys like Rodri, Thiago and these type of players have to absorb the press create space and still find the pass and not just look for the bailout option everytime he gets pressed.

But he's looked really good in that sort of double pivot at the base of the midfield. If I'm in charge of signings at Liverpool I'm still signing 2 or 3 good midfielders but maybe also a decent back up right back for him to be a serious option in midfield

Seering a super reliance on Trent. Lets hope he dont get injured

Southgate is tactically inept will never do it

Come on James we know Southgate isn't going to adapt modern tactics

I like how you talk about deep waters, and have this Submarine Sonar sound effect in the background music😂

the england point does not make any sence, southgate picks walker and trippier anyway, so i does not matter how trent and james play

why would Reece james need a space in an england team? unbelievably overrated, he barely plays

Despite the drop off in form and fitness of Reese James and Kyle Walking aging out of City's team, I think playing Tent inverted for England, especially against teams who play a low block and given our quite prosaic midfield (Henderson, Rice and even Bellingham aren't cute passers like Trent), could be a win-win. However, against strong teams I think TAA will remain a liability, in fact, on current form (and as a United fan admitably) I believe Aaron Wan Bissaka has such a unique, high level talent when it comes to his 1 vs 1 defending, I sya unique because I can't think of another modern full back famous for their "inpenetrability" (although that may partly be because his poor attacking reputation). This talent has been highlighted further in the later half of this season, if the opposition has a strong winger AWB will reliably clamp them up for 90 minutes (or 45 mins on the 2-3 occasions this season when a player has been giving United problems and AWB has been bought on at half time to promptly extinguish any hint of danger from that problem player), while he still has very little grace and style when on the ball (or frankly even just running) he has quietly become an important part of this Manchester United team both defending and in possession. Obviously he doesn't give you what Trent does on the ball but neither does Kyle Walker or to a lesser extent James (at least in terms of passing range and creativity) but AWB can do the job of 2 men going backward. Maybe TAA should just play as a deep lying midfielder like Pirlo, or to give a modern example, Christian Erikson this season at united. Erikson is a bit of a liability defensively due to his lack of physicallity and athleticism but when united are building up he is usually taking very deep positions (while Fred, Mctominay and even Casemiro who are less press resistant are playing higher up more like a #8), when I say deep positions I don't just mean the deepest centre mid , he often is positioned as one of the wide players in the back 3 alongside the 2 centre backs). However, when there is actual defending to do he is just a body congesting the centre offering some support to the likes of Casemiro. If you are going to move TAA to centre mid when he has the ball (when he is best), when you lose it why make him jog to another part of the pitch to do a job he is crap at, you'd almost be better letting Fabiniho go do that (joking but only just).

defensively i think he’s okay when he’s over the half way line, i’ve seen him win the ball back on the front foot a lot and he’s very good at that, it’s jusr when he’s near his goal and under pressure is when he struggles, which is obviously a big problem but i think defending how jim explained fits his strengths perfectly

the way i see it defensively is that Trent was our main creative player on the wing. He was consistently bombing forward and then having to try get back and was exhausted. now hes sitting alot deeper its alot easier for him to slot into that RB position and have the energy to defend his man. So i think this new tactical switch makes us alot more defensively sound too.

How did you get into football you look like you have no clue about football or never even played the game and you think you can tell us about football just if I were u stop talking about Liverpool you haven't a clue mate cause every Liverpool supporter has known trent was a midfielder since he was young so talk about someone else from other clubs

Only took Klopp 2 years to realize that TAA isn't a RB.

Tbh James can play#9 if you play him there or a number 10 died centre

TAA in MF should mean we buy one less MC and can then afford Jude🤞🏽 bring back Nico Williams from Forest

For England I’d play Trent in a double pivot with Rice, then Bellingham more advanced, and James RB.

Seriously, whom was a better RB than TAA in the the years between 2017-2020

Looks like Klopp's coaching tactics is just to attend Pep's free online coaching lessons with his pencil to copy stuff… Man was lost this season and had to phone Pep and beg for his approval… Shameless bin dippers measure this common manager to Pep the 🐐.
