Gary Neville tells Trent Alexander-Arnold what he must improve to be world-class

Gary Neville says Trent Alexander-Arnold is amazing but thinks that the full-back must still get better defensively in order to be considered as a world-class player in his position. Speaking on Sky Sports, after Liverpool's 2-1 victory over Tottenham, Neville said: "Liverpool's full-backs are quite simply sensational, but Andy Robertson is a better full-back than Trent Alexander-Arnold in my opinion. "I think Alexander-Arnold is amazing. From the moment I laid eyes on him in that first game at Old Trafford two or three years ago, his temperament was incredible to be thrown in that game. He was outstanding from minute one. "But now he's getting to a point where he is one of the best attacking full-backs I've ever seen but the three chances Tottenham had today (were on his side). "I took the Man of the Match off him because his defensive play could have cost his team. "Trent Alexander-Arnold is an amazing player, I love him to bits, but he just has to cut those little bits of rash defending out of his game and his positioning sometimes just needs a little bit more care." Alexander-Arnold has made overall 14 appearances during this season in which he has scored one goal and provided three assists. via Mirror
