Trent Alexander-Arnold reveals Liverpool’s plan against Manchester United

Trent Alexander-Arnold thinks it will be Liverpool’s defence, rather than their lethal attackers, that will be ‘the foundation for the result’ when they face Manchester United on Sunday. Jurgen Klopp's side travel to Old Trafford to take on United in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon. The Reds are the top scorers in the Premier League with 22 goals in just eight games – six more goals than any other side – but Alexander-Arnold believes it is the defence that will be key.

"I think, first and foremost, it’s having a good defensive structure," he told LiverpoolFC.com.   "They have outstanding attacking talent that we need to kind of keep quiet. They’ve got big names, they’re a strong, attacking side on the back of a good comeback in midweek, so they’ll have a bit of confidence.   "But I think our defensive shape will be the foundation for the result, for the performance. Get that right and then go and build with the ball and go and attack their weaknesses really.   "We’ll analyse where they’re weak, what we can do to get past them, around or over them.   "It’ll be an interesting game, a tactical one, it’ll be full of passion for it. But we are confident going into it."
