Trent Alexander-Arnold questioned again as 'arrogant' Man City thrash Liverpool LFC MCFC MCILIV
But Alexander-Arnold was guilty of not rushing out to meet the swashbuckling winger quicker as he delivered a pinpoint cross for his Argentine team-mate to score a tap-in.However, the worst was to come as just seconds after the break Kevin de Bruyne took City into the lead when Alexander-Arnold was accused of bottling a 50/50 challenge.“Trent Alexander-Arnold has jumped out of the way of a challenge and that is absolutely woeful.
City only ramped up their domination as the game went on with Liverpool unable to get anywhere near them as they cruised past players, who barely even made a challenge. And on 53 minutes it was 3-1, when more shoddy defending allowed City to creep closer and closer towards goal until an Alexander-Arnold block saw the ball at Ilkay Gundogan’s feet from six yards out.The German had the simple task of tucking it past Alisson before Grealish scored the goal his performance deserved when him and De Bruyne traded passes leaving Alexander-Arnold dizzy before the Englishman made it four.
Pearce added: “I’m looking at the City full-backs in Ake and Stones and they have been very good. I can’t say the same for the Liverpool pair. “City are so arrogant with the football. The beauty is they know they can switch the football and keep it.“I think for everything that Manchester City are with confidence with the ball, Liverpool aren’t at the moment.Alongside Pearce in the talkSPORT studio was ex-Liverpool star Charlie Adam, who said: “They’re moving with pace and confidence, yeah it’s arrogant, and it’s a complete disrespect to the opposition.
