Alan Shearer reveals it, Thomas Tüchel has used Arnold: 'The message...'

One of the major developments during the international break was Trent not being drafted to his national team. In response, Alan Shearer, a legend of English soccer, revealed that this was part of a plan by Thomas Tuchel.  "The message is: if Trent Alexander-Arnold...can be left out of the England squad, anyone can be left out."

"I think that's always a good message the coach can send to the other players: if they don't play well, they won't be drafted." Through these statements, Shearer revealed that Trent was only part of a convoluted plan by Tuchel. Despite being one of the best English players today, Tuchel used him to set an example.

A terrible attitude that shows the frustration still caused by Trent's move to Real Madrid.  Despite Liverpool's attempts to renew his contract, the full-back only wanted to be part of the Merengue club. A change that earned him the enmity of his former fans and that, probably, was the reason for his absence from the latest draft.

An unbelievable plan

After playing 9 seasons with Liverpool, Trent Alexander-Arnold said goodbye to the club at the end of last season. The 26-year-old player was looking for new challenges in his career, choosing Real Madrid as his next destination. Although he's currently competing for a starting spot against Dani Carvajal, the Englishman's level has been outstanding.

Leaning more toward offense, Trent has gained importance within Real Madrid as a key player. Still, to the player's own surprise, Thomas Tuchel didn't consider him for England's national team matches. Having played, for now, a total of 34 games for his country, his absence never received a logical explanation.

Alan Shearer's words only prove that Trent was used by Thomas Tuchel for an absurd plan. Instead of having the solve not to draft players, the coach prefers to use Trent as an example. A terrible attitude and, above all, terrible treatment from Tuchel toward one of the best players in England.

The effort to return

With the season just getting underway, Trent has plenty of time to return to a draft with his national team. Even so, this absence will give people a lot to talk about in the coming days. If Trent returns to play for his country, the relationship with his coach, Thomas Tuchel, could end up being tense.
