Former Liverpool goalkeeper David James has issued a firm defence of Trent Alexander-Arnold and believes criticism of his form this season is premature.
Alexander-Arnold, like a number of his Reds team-mates, has struggled so far this season and has come under scrutiny for some of his recent displays. Liverpool’s Champions League defeat away to Napoli brought sharp focus on the defender’s shortcomings.
Questions also continue to be asked about his defensive capabilities and whether he can adjust his game. But James, speaking exclusively to the ECHO, believes Alexander-Arnold has been impacted by the injuries Liverpool have had to contend with this season and that Reds supporters will see the best of him once his side return to full strength.
