Premier League legends Roy Keane and Jamie Carragher have questioned the defensive capability of Liverpool star Trent Alexander-Arnold.

The right-back had another tough game defensively against Arsenal in the Premier League at Anfield on Sunday.

The 24-year-old got an assist for Roberto Firmino's equalizer in the 2-2 draw, but was culpable defensively on several occasions.

On Sky Sports, Keane stated: “It's surprising with Trent. It's like he's never played the position before.

“He's an experienced player, played hundreds of games, won some big prizes, he's an international player.

“People moving quickly around him. It's like he's never seen it before. He must face that every day in training, he faces it every time he plays a top-level football match.

“He seems surprised every time someone has good movement against him. He's not learnt at all over the past few years.

“That's the bit that's surprises me, he's not improved at all defensively."

Carragher added: “It's whether he will ever improve defensively. I'm not quite sure he will, if I'm being honest.

“He's an experienced player. I think it comes back to, if Liverpool get back to their best, we'll see him more on the front foot with the ball, and we'll see him less defending. That's the position we're in."
