Trent Alexander-Arnold only had 24 hours to prepare for a first audition in the hybrid role assigned to him by Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp.
Having struggled alongside the collective earlier this season, Alexander-Arnold has been a shining light since Klopp asked him to pick up a central position whenever the Reds are in possession. Since then, Liverpool have recorded seven wins and two draws from nine Premier League matches.
In that sense, the experiment has been justified, even if Klopp only gave the Reds' right-back one day to prepare before meeting Arsenal last month! Alexander-Arnold, though, is embracing the tactical change with six assists and a goal to show for his outings since then.
