Pep Guardiola is impressed by Jurgen Klopp's new Liverpool tactic

Pep Guardiola has praised Jurgen Klopp for his tactical switch involving Trent Alexander-Arnold, which has contributed to Liverpool securing seven successive Premier League victories.

Klopp first trialled Alexander-Arnold occupying midfield positions during the Reds' 2-2 draw with Arsenal on Easter Sunday, a system he has since stuck by. The inverted full-back role sees the No.66 move into advanced positions when on the attack, covered by the right-sided defender when venturing forwards.

This change in approach has brought the best out of both the West Derby-born defender and his team-mates, who have since achieved wins against Leeds United, Nottingham Forest, West Ham United, Tottenham Hotspur, Fulham, Brentford and Leicester City.
