Back to current matches, Everton seem to have lost the ability to kill teams off. Palace are poor yet we are handing them a point. So frustrating.

Some cracking points from Neville as why Trent might not go and why it wouldn't be the worst decision in the world

Neville on about matches being won on key moments - how many key moments have been won because of TAA for Liverpool - and in big games in the CL and Prem. TAA had no issues when facing the likes of Mbappe and Co when in the CL
As for the defending - couple of stats
Someone also highlighted the goals that have come from the right side , half of them from free kicks and another 2 were deflected goals , was at fault for one goal at City and one where Ings turned him
he is the best right back in the country - when the likes of Cafu state how good he is and someone like Southgate doesn’t pick him that just shows that Southgate has no idea. And it’s also worth remembering that both Walker and Tripper were torn apart in the World Cup when they faced a player of quality in Persic

What about when klopp didn't play TAA and played Gomez instead at RB in a big game because he was better defensively?
Oh and that over rated English man scored again. Solo run from basically half way line
Properly rubbish

Most definitely not 'a clear foul', but hey, let's just agree to disagree.

Unless I'm missing something, doesn't this show that AWB is clearly the better defender.

But that isn't the point Phil's trying to make so why question it? Lol ?

Do you mean 3 years ago when he was still developing as an 18 year ? As opposed to 18/19 season and 19/20 season when he was right back ever present and pretty much the best right back in European football

AWB is the best defensive right back England have - it should him , TAA and then one of James or Tripper in the squad

A year old and a better defender than TAA was at their relevant stages of their career - but it’s still 3 years ago

Yet Liverpool's defence has been all over the shop all year. Granted the best defender in the league has been sidelined . Trent has had a rough year ..not played his best . Yet he should automatically walk into the euros?
Ironically if covid hadnt hit he would be at the euros in his correct year as he was flying and unstoppable
But this is a year on and he hasn't been his best ...
Plus as slime points out wan bassaka is the best by your own chart

Yes because he is still the best complete right back in the league and his form over the past 4 weeks has improved especially since they have a settle CB partnership , Tripper spent 10 weeks of the season banned , James and Walker have both been in and out of their teams .
AWB defensively is the strongest but offers very little going forward - Southgate will ignore both to go with two right backs that played in the World Cup 3 years ago

Yet walker is far more versatile than Trent.. can play right midfield. Right back. Centre back
Trent can't over that extra centre back cover .. can we least agree our CB are rather rubbish and we might need walker there? And with walker there it might be why Trent misses out.. need the more defensive minded right back

TAA can play right mid , right wing back , right winger - he is certainly versatile. Walkers pace allows him to cover up his mistakes and get back quickly but this year he hasn’t been first choice at City - but I would take Walker for the experience , AWB for the pure defensive and TAA for his ability on the ball

Wow we must be rubbish. Troare has actually got an assist this season

As can walker to all those positions you list there
Trent will be our world cup right back next year I'm sure of it
The euros might just be poorly timed for his form.
But hey. Injuries are key. Look at rice. Shoe in for the squad but now? Who knows
One injury and Trent is in
Sometimes the standbys are the best players of the tournament.....
