Liverpool star Trent Alexander-Arnold has responded to claims that he 'can't defend' after his tough start to the season.
The 24-year-old has come in for a lot of criticism after Liverpool's poor start to the Premier League campaign, which sees the side sit in ninth position.

There has also been doubt the Reds full-back will not be in the England squad for the upcoming FIFA World Cup, having not featured for Gareth Soutghate in their last two games.
"People still say it. It's not something that I get bothered by – because these things do stick with players. I think, on the whole defensively, I've improved," Alexander-Arnold said, per Goal.
"But I would say like, even now, defensively and going forward, I can still improve on everything.
"We never complete football and I will never be the perfect footballer.
"The aim is to be as close to perfection as you can."
"It's not that I don't care about making mistakes, it's just that they don't really bother me.
"As long as I know I've tried the right thing, and what I've tried would have helped the team."
