Glen Johnson comments on Liverpool defender Trent Alexander-Arnold

Former Liverpool defender and club hero Glen Johnson has showered praise on Trent Alexander-Arnold, saying he has been one of the stand-out players for the Reds this season.

The 21-year-old has continued his good form from last season, and has been outstanding in 2019-20 for the Reds, scoring two goals and providing nine assists in all competitions thus far.

His meteoric rise has been applauded by popular football pundits, with former England striker Gary Lineker has frequently showered heaps of praise on the youngster on Twitter.

Johnson says that it is hard to believe what the youngster does on the pitch at such an age, but at the same time feels that he is ‘very lucky’ to have someone like Virgil van Dijk alongside him in defence.
