Trent Alexander-Arnold has long been linked with a permanent move into central midfield but Rio Ferdinand believes there are two key areas that Liverpool must improve for his transition to be a success
Rio Ferdinand has said Arne Slot must adjust his system if he wants to deploy Trent Alexander-Arnold in central midfield. The 25-year-old has became a presence at right-back at Anfield since signing his first professional contract in 2016, making 313 appearances for the Reds. The versatile player has also demonstrated his ability in midfield under former Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp and ex-England coach Gareth Southgate.
But going to the ball and not knowing what's behind you - the angles that he needs to come on the ball like someone like Busquets or Toni Kroos. 'The way they come onto the ball, they drop into the little half-positions where they're getting it side on, one touch and they see the game.' Beya chimed in: 'He was poor at that during the Euros,' before Ferdinand asserted: 'Yeah, that's down to him but also that's down to coaching.
