'It's like having De Bruyne at right back': Jamie Carragher and Gary Neville in awe of 'out of this world' Trent Alexander-Arnold after two more assists in Liverpool's comeback win over West Ham

Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher hailed 'out of this world' Trent Alexander-Arnold following Liverpool's 3-2 comeback victory over West Ham.

The 21-year-old delivered a pinpoint cross for Georginio Wijnaldum to head the Reds into an ninth-minute lead, but West Ham turned the game on its head thanks to goals from Issa Diop and Pablo Fornals.

Liverpool would not be denied. Mohamed Salah levelled before Alexander-Arnold provided Sadio Mane with an easy tap-in on 80 minutes; the full-back's 24th assist since the beginning of the 2018-19 season.

'What makes him special is it is like having De Bruyne at right back, like a midfielder at right back,' Carragher told Sky Sports.
