Twelve months ago, with the frustration of a long, hard and ultimately underwhelming season burning inside him, Trent Alexander-Arnold picked up his phone and opened up the Twitter app.
Accompanied by a picture of himself and Curtis Jones on the post-season Anfield lap of honour, following an unlikely third-place Premier League finish on the final day of a taxing campaign, Alexander-Arnold outlined his and his team-mates' intent for the following year.
He tweeted: "Next year we’re coming back for trophies. Thank you for the support 'til the very end Reds. We always find a way."
