Joe Cole has named Trent Alexander-Arnold as a superior crosser and passer over former England teammate and Manchester United icon David Beckham. The Liverpool has seen himself being compared to Manchester United hero David Beckham after taking another leap in his play this season.
The England full-back was once again a big influence as the Reds put one foot in the Champions League semi-final with a 3-1 win over Benfica this week. The 23-year-old found attacker Luis Diaz with a defence splitting ball which travelled 40 yards, with Diaz nodding down for Sadio Mane to tap home.
Alexander-Arnold leads the league in assists this season with 11, whilst creating by far the most chances with 66. And after his performance both Cole and Rio Ferdinand sung his praises, with the former making a bold statement.
