‘Nonsense’ – Carragher and Neville both agree on one thing about £180k-per-week Liverpool player

Jamie Carragher and Gary Neville discussed Liverpool defender Trent Alexander-Arnold’s position last night on Monday Night Football for Sky Sports.

Trent is a highly gifted full-back whose passing ability is simply exceptional. It has led to many pundits believing that he would be better used playing in midfield. In fact, England boss Gareth Southgate has used him playing in midfield in a recent game which has further fuelled the debate. Carragher says it’s “nonsense” and “madness” to think that the young Liverpudlian would shine in midfield which requires a...
