I understand your point here but what Neville is trying to say is there comes a point in TAA’s career where he has to understand his value defensively may affect him getting into England games because although we know he’s the best going forward is it worth the sacrifice defensively when there are other options who can offer both sides of the shame at a high standard

I think the likelihood of his selection to the tournament team will depend on whether Gareth plans a system/s that covers the defensive right area sufficiently. Thus, allowing Trent to focus on the attacking third and press from the front due to his club experience playing the high line. He needs to be seen more as a right winger who provides width options for their central midfield, or act as an overload to expose any opponent weakenesses on their left side to deliver crosses for the strikers. Like many have mentioned, he has creative talents that if exploited properly can make decisive attacking impact. On defensive duties alone, Gary is right there are more obvious options to cover that area to be honest.

Yes he is playing in a city side who could potentially win the quadruple but in terms of his stats it may be slightly better than tents this season but still hasn't been great. Wan bissaka for me best defensive Rb in world football atm. No argument there. Tripper for me is just average so I wouldn't really pick him. And reece James, am.... I mean yeah he's a good young Rb but in conclusion, people have to remember trent in the last 3 seasons and how much of an impact he's had on this Liverpool side. So although wan bissaka has been doing wonders this season. Its still trent for me to start simply because he will create a lot of chances.

I think Neville makes a great point, TAA is a great player but not a great right back, it works at Liverpool because he's very well protected. First of all the team presses better than any other team except for Bayern, they keep the ball pretty well in the premier league so TAA can cheat most of the time and play high. Liverpool also have Hendo and Fabinho, 2 of the best defensive midfielders covering for him. So in that Liverpool team, he has the license to do what makes him special, playing for England with different teammates and under a different coach who isn't gonna protect him as much, he's not gonna have as much license to go forward and he's not gonna be as well protected. I think James/Trippier are close enough to TAA that they could provide enough offensive output while being more traditional right backs. Walker is the most solid and he's got the most experience, he can also play at CB so he has to go. Sorry Wan Bissaka, don't see how you make the team ahead of Trent.
