It was a good result for Liverpool at Manchester City on Saturday. In all honesty, I think it was a fair result at the end of the day. They had a few more chances than us but, as a whole, we got what we deserved through Trent Alexander-Arnold's wonderful strike. He won't hit many better than that this season, I suspect.
I've seen Trent receive a bit of flak on social media, but I thought he played well and stood strong against Jeremy Doku, who will cause nightmares for plenty of defenders all over the land this season.
I didn't think Trent could have done much more defensively. City clearly tried to target him and overload their left side. Doku only really had one opportunity, which was one he created himself. For Trent, that means job done.

As well as Trent, I was really impressed with Ryan Gravenberch and the impact he made against a really technical Manchester City side. It wasn't an easy game in midfield, that was shown by the way in which Dominik Szoboszlai endured a tough afternoon. But there was something refreshing about Gravenberch and the way he carried Liverpool up the pitch late on. He came on with energy and gave us a physical presence that was lacking before.
He's a player that excites me every time I watch him. Sometimes he has a tendency to fade during games, but I imagine that's just because he's getting used to the Premier League. I think with Jurgen Klopp looking after him and coaching him he certainly could be a big one for the future if it all works out. He's got a lot going for him.
