I can\u2019t see how he can not be in that squad because he has to improve your chances, even if it\u2019s from the bench.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So I suspect there\u2019s something that Tuchel does not like about Trent Alexander-Arnold, I\u2019d just be guessing in terms of what it might be, whether it\u2019s his attitude or he thinks he\u2019s not brilliant defensively. There has to be something in that because it makes absolutely no sense. You\u2019ve got players playing in his position, with all due respect, that are not in the same league as him, certainly with the ball at his feet.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Speaking on The Rest is Football podcast, Lineker expressed his disbelief that a player of Alexander-Arnold&#8217;s technical ceiling&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":367364,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[444,85,46,18617,4029,105,30070,46467,6866],"class_list":["post-367363","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sports","tag-england","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-laliga","tag-real-madrid","tag-sports","tag-t-alexander-arnold","tag-t-tuchel","tag-world-cup"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/367363","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=367363"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/367363\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/367364"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=367363"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=367363"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=367363"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
