As an inverted full-back, Alexander-Arnold has had more freedom going forward and less responsibility defending.
And it appears as if the shackles have been taken off with his recent performances.
He wowed fans again with a fantastic bit of skill during the 1-0 win over Fulham at Anfield last night.
The defender pirouetted with the ball during the first half of the game and left Joao Palhinha chasing his shadow.
