Former Liverpool defender Glen Johnson has hailed Trent Alexander-Arnold as the best full back in the Premier League.

The young right-back is a key part of the Reds' success under Jurgen Klopp in the past two seasons.

Alexander-Arnold is one of the primary creative outlets for the team, while he is also secure defensively.

The 21-year-old has received praise from all quarters in recent weeks.

"Trent Alexander-Arnold. By miles at the moment [best full back in the league]," Johnson exclusively told Express Sport.

"[Manchester United's\ Aaron Wan-Bissaka isn't so much the modern full-back, he sometimes looks like a centre-half playing full-back.

"He's a good defender but he's not got the natural ability that Trent has got."
