I mean, Villarreal looked great in the first half and we were sloppy, but why we would ever play defending a lead vs going for it, I’ll never know

he’s def not the best rb in the world but he’s in a perfect situation with our good cb usually being able to cover his defensive errors and he more than makes up for it for LFC with what he does going forward



It’s almost like the argument should be is he the best player that starts at the rb position

If you made a starting 11 with the best players in the world, he wouldn’t be considered at all for a 4 at the back but if you had a back 3 or back 5 you’d have a case with choosing Trent

Attacking, hard to argue but you’re supposed to play defense as well in that position.
I mean it’s pretty clear our system demands he play basically as an extra attacker while running a shite ton to hurry back and defend

Could he do better? Absolutely. He also runs a shite ton so it’s no surprise he occasionally gets lazy and makes a mental mistake

Whatever he’s doing is clearly working

One of my fraternity brothers is still trying to tell me TAA is the best RB in the world


Is he even the best right back in the premier league?

Would imagine the only one people would take over him would be Reece James


Don’t think LFC would trade TAA for James and Chelsea wouldn’t make that trade either

Randy always likes to pull that card when LFC is on a high... which has been a lot lately... 3 finals in 5 years

SCH’s schtick is to proclaim TAA as overrated at any opportunity. Maybe it’s deflecting the fact that Wan Bissaka is actually one of the most overrated RB’s in the world and plays for his team, idk.

Yep some people's bias and inability to think clearly show through.

3 CL finals in 5 years.

Klopp the first English manager to reach CL final, FA cup final and league cup final in the same season.

He's perfect for our version of a 4-3-3. I don't think he just slots into any other team, but for Liverpool and the way we play he's the best RB in the world.

This idea that he is shite at defending is baffling to me. He's a good (not great) defender and a world class attacker.

I have limited viewing this year. The 7yo and newborn take up more time than I have now. Dont even really get to watch Madrid games anymore, have to watch replays.

I have been able to halfass watch the champions league games since they are on during the workday. Reece James looked damn good against Vinicius. So much so that Madrid is interested in signing him now.

He's the best pure RB in the sense that he could slot into any team on earth and thrive.

Good deal.

Looks like Alaba is out for Madrid today. I dont see Madrid winning this game without him.
