In a 2-0 win over Leicester City, Liverpool 'Prince' Alexander-Arnold celebrated his 150th Premier League milestone. With 10 goals and 43 goals in 150 games and 53 goals in his team, he led the team to 105 wins, and Arnold used practical actions to sit on the throne of the first right-back in world football in the world today. Next, it depends on when the "prince" will ascend to the throne.
On 26 October 2016, in the fourth round of the English League Cup, Liverpool played Tottenham Hotspur, and Alexander-Arnold made his Reds debut. 50 days later, Arnold made his Premier League debut, kicking off the path to a rising star. In the 2018-19 season, Alexander-Arnold grew into the absolute main force of Liverpool, reaching the top of the Champions League with the team, and the scene in which Arnold took a corner kick in the second leg of the semi-final against Barca became an eternal cheer in the hearts of Liverpool fans. After that, Alexander-Arnold won the Premier League title and the Club World Cup with the Reds.
Today, after Liverpool beat Leicester City 2-0 at home in the 24th round of the Premier League, Alexander-Arnold officially reached the milestone of 150 Premier League games of his career. 150 Premier League games, creating 300 chances (second only to De Bruyne in the Premier League in the same period), completing 279 successful crosses, creating 58 major scoring opportunities, giving 43 direct assists to teammates, and personally scoring 10 goals, leading Liverpool to 105 victories. With such a result as a defender, Arnold proved what a "chosen son" is. What's more, Arnold is only 23 years old.
In the German transfer market, Arnold is worth as much as 80 million euros, ranking 15th in football. Moreover, Arnold is not only the most expensive defender in football in the world today, but also the only defender in the top 20 in football. The second-place defender is Manchester City defender Ruben Díaz, worth 75 million euros, while the second-placed right-back is Paris Saint-Germain's Ashraf, worth 70 million euros. In fact, as early as July 2019, Arnold has already achieved this achievement, the number one right-back in world football, is it controversial?
After the retirement of legendary captain Gerrard, Liverpool were unable to find their next legendary successor. The current captain Henderson, regardless of strength or fame, is not enough to be worthy of this position, coupled with the fact that joining the army in the middle of the road is not a red seedling in terms of identity, van Dijk, Salah and other stars are also the same, Arnold is undoubtedly the most suitable choice. After consecutive wonderful performances, will the Red Army 'prince' be far away?
