New Delhi: Trent Alexander-Arnold is without a doubt one of the best fullbacks in the world right now and over the years he has also established himself as one of the finest in the history of Premier League. A top class player who came up the ranks at Liverpool and eventually made a reputation of having a tremendous right foot that can produce some top quality passes and crosses from that right side of the pitch.
The English fullback has reached yet another milestone at Anfield as tonight against Wolves, he is making his 250th appearance in th Premier League, at the age of 26 years and 132 days. This also makes him the youngest ever player to reach that milestone, surpassing the Reds’ legendary midfielder Steven Gerrard who reached this milestone back in 2006 aged 26 years and 200 days. A truly incredible achievement for the fullback who has already built his reputation as a certain future legend at the Kopp.
This will also be his 343rd appearance for Liverpool in all competitions which moves him into the list of top 50 Liverpool players with most number of appearances for the club, drawing the number with Phil Taylor. He has spent more than a decade with the Reds if we consider his youth days, and currently is playing his ninth season with the senior side. During this time, he has provided an astonishing 64 assists from that right-back position, ranking him third when it comes to most number of assists in the Premier League for the Reds.

How are Liverpool lining-up against Wolves?

In a 4-2-3-1 formation, the only two changes that Arne Slot has made in tonight’s lineup is the inclusion of Diogo Jota, who comes in place of Cody Gakpo and the man of the moment, Alexander-Arnold coming in for Conor Bradley. Jota will be shifing into the striker role against his former club, while Luiz Diaz, who played that role in their previous game against Everton moves to the wings. Alexander-Arnold might turn out to be a massive involvement in this game from that right-back role, and there’s no doubt that he would just love to mark his 250th appearance with a goal or maybe with an assist. A crucial game for Liverpool after their draw in the Merseyside derby, and Arne Slot will be looking to get the best result at home.
Liverpool are up against Wolves in a Premier League fixture and it’s a special day for their right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold as he reaches a big milestone, surpassing the legendary Steven Gerrard. Football Sports News: Latest Cricket News, Cricket Live Score, Sports Breaking News from Sports Today
