'Someone I've admired for a long time': Trent names two Man City players he watches to improve his game

Trent Alexander-Arnold has singled out John Stones and Rodri as the players he regularly observes to get better in his new hybrid right-back role.

“I think as someone who plays the inverted, hybrid role - I don’t know what people call it these days - then it is obviously John Stones," Trent told the Liverpool Echo.

"He is someone who, for long time, I have admired. He is exceptional, so I watch him a lot. In clips or even when I am just watching City’s games, I will sit and focus on him.

"And I admire the way Rodri plays. He is pivotal in that team and someone who is massively underrated, but like we have seen recently, when he is out of the team, they are not the same. That just shows how important he is.

"I would say it is those kinds of players I watch, but there are a lot. I will watch players from the past as well - Busquets, Alonso, Pirlo, Stevie G, those players I have always enjoyed watching."

Liverpool face Man City at the Etihad on Saturday, November 25 (KO 12:30 UK time).
