Trent Alexander-Arnold has been the man of the hour for England this international break, with the Liverpool star stealing the show in back-to-back games.
The 25-year-old right-back won praise from Gary Lineker after his performance against the Republic of Ireland, with the English media also hailing Alexander-Arnold after his latest display this week against Finland.
With Alexander-Arnold thriving in the right-back position, the Liverpool star has answered a lot of critics who doubted if there was a place for the Anfield maestro in this England squad after a disappointing Euros campaign.
And Roy Keane has now joined the growing list of pundits praising Alexander-Arnold.
Alexander-Arnold lauded for pulling off passes ‘not many players can play’
Speaking on ITV, the pundit showered Alexander-Arnold with praise, with Keane highlighting how few players on the planet could play the pass the Liverpool defender made to assist Harry Kane for his first goal of the night.
Indeed, Alexander-Arnold has been a revelation for England this international break, and Keane was in awe with what he saw from the 25-year-old defender under Lee Carsley, who is already getting the best out of the fullback.

Keanne said on Alexander-Arnold’s latest England performance: “It was an easy night for him, when you give top players time and space on the ball, and obviously, his decision-making, the type of passes he was making, giving his teammates a lovely pace of the pass.
“Obviously, Finland was tired and we could see that, but this pass [for Kane’s first goal], not many players can play that. The pass from Trent, absolutely brilliant.”
Alexander-Arnold already looks unstoppable this season
It’s not just for England who Alexander-Arnold looks incredible with, with the defender also thriving with Liverpool this season after a fast start under new manager Arne Slot.
In just five games for club and country this season, Alexander-Arnold looks nothing short of unstoppable and in the best form the fullback has looked in in some years in the right-back role.
With the Premier League back this weekend, Alexander-Arnold will want to ensure he keeps his form up heading into Saturday’s tie against Nottingham Forest, who the defender could have a field day against.
