Trent Alexander-Arnold was named as a midfielder in England's Euro 2024 squad and played in that role against Serbia and Denmark
Jurgen Klopp was very vocal about transforming Trent Alexander-Arnold into a midfielder, questioning aloud: "Why would you make the best right-back in the world a midfielder?"

Southgate, however, chose the path of experimentation by using him as a midfielder, a decision that appears to have now run its course.
