SportFootballLiverpool FCTrent Alexander-Arnold had to change his game under Arne Slot during his final season at LiverpoolTrent Alexander-Arnold detailed the changes he had to make to his game six months before leaving Liverpool for Real Madrid. He said: "In certain games I'll be inside because of the way they [the opposition] press.

He added: "The manager will dissect how they press so we can outnumber the way they press."If they press with three, we'll have four players around, so that we can play through them. If they press with a two, then there'll be three players.

It's just about who those players are and where it works best."So, wherever the manager tells me to be, I'll be there because he'll tell me that's most likely where you'll get the ball. Meanwhile, Slot was candid about the player's need to hone the defensive side of his game, telling TNT Sports: "When we started to work together, I emphasised also a bit on his defensive work."He had to keep producing the numbers in assisting goals, but if we wanted to be a team that concedes less shots, he had to improve a bit in defending."Alexander-Arnold has endured a troubled first season in Madrid, which has seen a change of manager after Xabi Alonso was sacked and a struggle to hold down a regular first-team place.
