Premier League: Numbers proving the influence of Trent Alexander-Arnold on Liverpool while Real Madrid wait in the wings

Although not yet officially confirmed, there is a clear reception that Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold will join Real Madrid this summer.

The right -wing defender skillfully returned any questions about his future career movement when interviewing after the match against Leicester on the weekend, a game in which his left -legged strike took Red On the eve of a second Premier League title in five years, and the first the club will be able to celebrate in front of their fans.

Jurgen Klopp 2019/20 won their first Liverpool in English-Future in the Premier League era and the first for 30 years, but Covid robbed them of chance to enjoy it in the stadium with their loyal supporters.

Title win would be perfect of Liverpool ending for TRENT

The image of Jordan Henderson Removing the trophy in front of an empty Anfield is the one who will live long in memory for a number of reasons but a win against Tottenham On Sunday it will surely be the suggestion for a holiday atmosphere on the famous old terrain.

If that will be that TrentThe last season at the club he joined as a six -year -old in 2004, then a title triumph could no longer be perfect for him. However, what is likely to be the impact on both clubs if he is going to move to the Santiago Bernabeu?

From a Liverpool’s point of view, he opens up the possibility of Conor Bradley claiming position as his own.

nevertheless Joe Gomez AND Jarrell Quansah They have also played there, the 21-year-old Irish northern will seem to be the most natural adaptation.

Alexander-Arnold has kept Conor Bradley on the borders

In the past three seasons, Bradley has barely seen a look, and it is Alexander-Arnold’s consistency that has kept it tightly on the largest side.

For example, Trent has 10 goals and 23 assists at the time, while Conor Bradley has only one goal and eight assists.

Of course, the 2,159 minutes of the young man in the field since the beginning of campaigning 2022/23 can hardly be compared to 7,792 of Trent, although it can be ensured that, given the responsibility of patrolling the appropriate channel in Alexander-Arnold’s stay, those numbers should soon be increased.

If he is going to reach the level of his contemporary it is a bad point at this stage.

The accuracy of the shooting 61.5% of Bradley compared to 33% of Trent is a little fraudulent given how many shots both actually had – 24 for the first and 138 for the latter – so it will be interesting to see how much an improvement is made if Arne Slot does not look outside the club for a replacement to his right.

The passage of perfection underlines the natural game of Trent

From a point of view before crossing, Trent has no equal in the club over the past three seasons. Its 5.890 total transitions are second only to Virgil van dijkBut international England leads the tables in Liverpool for the number of forward crossings – 2,104 – with a 66.4%switch end statistic.

In addition to any protective task that Conor Bradley or any other player charged with the work will have to participate, is the adroness of Trent to come forward with the importance that will be difficult to repeat.

ABOUT Madrid truewithout Dani Carvajal To bomb in front of the right side, Los Blancos has found it difficult to create chances from that area of ​​the field.

Lucas Vazquez It can normally be considered as Deputy Carvajal and has done its job this season due to damage to the latter, though it will be 34 from the beginning of the new season.

panting has been proven in position, and if necessary, Antonio Rudiger OR Oeder Militao It will meet, but the need for Alexander-Arnold to enter and give a balance in the fourth rear looks clear.

Carvajal and Vazquez to put pressure on TRENT

Using the same three-season time frame, 82.8% accuracy of vazquez for the passages made in the last third (1,243 made, 1,029 successful) trumpet 77.5% of its contemporaries (1,262 made, 978 successful), and is also a mile better than 66.4% of three. However, both are after the production of Liverpool man in this regard.

Seven goals from Carvajal and nine from Vazquez are at the same time with Liverpool’s husband, although 10 and 15 assists are not in the same ball as Trent 23.

6,107 minutes in the field for Vazquez is significantly lower than 7,192 of Carvajal, with the latter playing about 600 minutes less than Trent, or the equivalent of nearly six and a half games. To this end, the Spaniard could consider, taking into account his age, that he was made in order to attack the ability, if not excellent.

An area where both true players have excellent is in their one-to-one duels against a direct opponent.

623 and 597 of Carvajal and Vazquez view both in the Top 10 of Los Blancos, and the percentages earned over 50% are also in the high bracket. Trent has participated in 637 in comparison, earning only 48.4% of them.

An update in certain areas, Alexander-Arnold however will have to show an improvement in others, and one fact to consider is that it will never have experienced the type of pressure that comes with the wearing of the entire white set.

In Liverpool, he is, and has always been, fetally one of them. In Real Madrid, he will have to prove himself again and, moreover, will be in the full splendor of an unforgivable Spanish press.
