Marco Silva impressed by Trent Alexander-Arnold’s stellar performance against Fulham
Fulham manager Marco Silva was impressed by Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold’s outstanding showing at Craven Cottage. The Reds won easily 3-1, with Alexander-Arnold’s amazing free kick setting the mood for the match.
In a post-match interview with the Premier League’s official website, Silva couldn’t help but praise Alexander-Arnold’s moment of brilliance. The 25-year-old, who had recently returned from injury, scored a fantastic goal that showed his trademark brilliance.
“Good first half, second half not at the best level,” the Fulham boss said.
“Balanced first half, Liverpool scored an excellent free-kick but our reaction was good and it would not have been fair to get to half-time losing the game because we had some very good moments.
“After the second goal, we were not able to create so many and the second half was not good.”
Alexander-Arnold’s return from a knee injury has been closely awaited by Liverpool fans. His impact was seen not only through his goal-scoring abilities, but also through his fast passing and general dedication to the club.
Silva noted the importance of having Alexander-Arnold back in Liverpool’s lineup, especially as they compete for the Premier League crown. While still finding his rhythm following his injury absence, Alexander-Arnold’s return on the field is a major boost for Jurgen Klopp’s team.
As Liverpool tries to sustain their championship push, Alexander-Arnold’s resurgence is certainly a positive development for the club, and Silva’s praise shows his effect on the field.
