Speaking on the Sam Allardyce has been discussing Trent Alexander-Arnold and a potential position change for the full-back. Alexander-Arnold has come in for a lot of criticism this season due to his defensive deficiencies, and according to Allardyce, those problems could be masked by a move into midfield. The ex-Bolton manager says that the England star could be great as a midfielder.
Allardyce discussed the idea of playing the 24-year-old further up. “Jurgen has played him in the midfield a few times before now, and I just wonder whether he can actually go there and be great.
Alexander-Arnold isn’t doing his job properly at right-back, and the midfield is being completely bypassed in almost every single game. The Reds need to try something different, and moving Alexander-Arnold to the midfield may be the answer to their prayers.
