“I make mistakes as well. I gave away a penalty against Hungary so we are both still learning our trade. Liverpool have 95 % of the ball and he defends less than I have to.”

People are just too quick to jump on his back - Glen Johnson tells critics to back off as he defends world-class Liverpool star
By Jidonu Mauyon Modified 22 Sep 2022 Follow Us Comment Share Former England defender - Glen Johnson Liverpool defender Trent Alexander-Arnold has been a subject of intense scrutiny following his slow start to the season. The right-back's performances have dropped significantly since the campaign kicked off. That has prompted many to point fingers at him, but former Reds star Glen Johnson has jumped to his defence. It goes without saying that Alexander-Arnold has been one of the finest players in his position in the Premier League recently. Although he's currently not at the top of his game, Johnson reckons it's too early to start scrutinizing the Englishman. Trent Alexander-Arnold@TrentAA?21493113723? https://t.co/IPbNGW9b4l The former Liverpool star told the PA news agency while speaking at an LFC Foundation-SC Johnson Goals for Change partnership event at Anfield (as per ThisIsAnfield): “I personally think people should back off. He set the bar so high in recent years that people are just too quick to jump on his back just because he is not at the level we are used to seeing him." One of the main accusations levelled at Alexander-Arnold is that he contributes more in attack than in defence, but Johnson doesn't think that's a problem. The former Reds star says that the right-back remains a world-class player despite his current struggles. “We all know he is better going forward than defending but there is nothing wrong with that; every player is better at one thing than something else," the Englishman continued. “I think it is a bit harsh. Of course he hasn’t been playing to the level we are used to seeing but you don’t lose your ability overnight. He is still world class."
