England switch to 4-4-2 with wan bissaka and TAA playing right back and right mid and they have the most complete right side in world football.
I don't know why people are getting a bit upset with mentioning he's a bit suspect 1 on 1, he is, however that doesn't mean he isn't a world class right back, even more so in a system like Liverpool's where he's going to be attacking 10 times for every one time he defends and has three other top defenders playing with him.
The more curious thing is how can Southgate get the best of him, he's looked like a caricature version of himself at international level and without the strict structure and inferior defensive team mates seems to be caught out a bit more (Kosovo at St Mary's prime example). I think given the midfield weakness England should plump for a 343 with Trent at RWB.
Fired a dig at Neville yesterday in post match interview 3:37 in.

You two are probably right. I didn't think about that Carragher quote and purely thought he meant that as in Gary was shite.Yeah like the fella above said he was just referencing what Carragher said once. Fullback isn’t a glamorous position and no one wanted to grow up to be a Gary Neville. Trent wants to change that perception.
On 10 assists for the season now so should be his full back record of 12. Will find it hard to catch KDB on 15 though.
Awful for the Southampton goal, should have cleared the ball.
Went on to lose the ball 38 times - the most by any PL player this season - actual stat.
Agree. That's as close to a 0/10 performance you'll see. You love to see it.Horrendous tonight. 0/10 performance.
Absolutely, but he’s been poor for a while now, right?Horrendous game from him tonight but he's still a young lad. Live and learn.
He’s actually below average defensively, but that has always been made up with his crosses and passsing.Without his delivery, he's average. The volume of touches and balls he gets to play from dead balls makes him highly dependent on his attacking output. He's an average defender, but we all knew that. Completely off form.
For a few games since he came back from injury, but again he's still young. He'll have periods like this in his career.Absolutely, but he’s been poor for a while now, right?
Can we sticky this? better than Beckham, or somethingWent on to lose the ball 38 times - the most by any PL player this season - actual stat.
For sure he will. As you say, he is young, but he is also a little suspect defensively and not the quickest fullback. Do you trust him one on one defensiveley? Last season was absolutely brilliant going forward, mind.For a few games since he came back from injury, but again he's still young. He'll have periods like this in his career.
Depends on who he's up against but he can be found wanting defensively. He seems to struggle more in one on one's like you say. Robertson has more pace to recover if someone beats him. It's a positional thing for Trent that he needs to work on.For sure he will. As you say, he is young, but he is also a little suspect defensively and not the quickest fullback.

Robertson also has much more of a nasty streak to him. I think most great defenders have that. Both our fullbacks lack that compared to say Evra and Neville.Depends on who he's up against but he can be found wanting defensively. He seems to struggle more in one on one's like you say.

It does seem a lot. But, in fairness if they're counting crosses then it kinda skews the stat a bit. I mean, making a sloppy pass is a lot different to nobody getting onto a cross, or multiple crosses like tonight.Yeah, I couldn't believe what I was hearing there. Crazy stat.
Yeah which is why Southgate doesn’t trust him.He’s actually below average defensively, but that has always been made up with his crosses and passsing.

Still funny though
Agreed, but this is the same Southgate who prefers Mount over Foden and Grealish.Yeah which is why Southgate doesn’t trust him.
Dunno, but they did pump.a lot of crosses in tonight.Yeah, makes a lot of difference. How many of those were crosses?

Yeah, he did well. Makes me wonder what they count as giving it away. Are they counting say, headed clearances, crosses etc? To me giving it away would be just a sloppy pass and to do that 38 times seems ridiculous.Fair enough. He was poor. But they all were, by and large. Impressed with his opposite right back, Walker-Peters from what I saw. Unassuming, did everything well.
