Trent Alexander-Arnold has revealed the moment when Jurgen Klopp told him and the Liverpool squad they would be changing formation with the England international utilised as an inverted full-back.
The 24-year-old has thrived for the Reds in recent weeks since moving central and being unleashed in midfield, away from his traditional right-back berth, when Liverpool are on the ball.
Klopp’s men are currently on an eight-game unbeaten run and have won their last six as they make a late surge for an unlikely top four finish. And the Reds have used their new system for their last seven matches, with Alexander-Arnold registering six assists during such a run.
