Alan Shearer says Liverpool have a player who’s even better than Thomas Muller
Euro 2024 is just about to start, and there’s so much excitement around this festival of football that is about to begin.
We’re going to see some stars emerge on the world stage this summer, while some of the old guard will prove that they still have some life left in them.
Speaking to Goal on TikTok, Alan Shearer has been ranking five potential stars of Euro 2024, and he’s made an interesting claim about Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold.
Trent Alexander-Arnold is better than Thomas Muller says Alan Shearer
Shearer was tasked with blind ranking five Euro stars.
“Bruno Fernandes?” Shearer was asked.
“Three,” Shearer replied.
“Trent Alexander-Arnold?”
“Four,” Shearer said.
“Frenkie De Jong?”
“Two,” Shearer said.
“Pedri?”
“One,” Shearer said.
“Thomas Muller?”
“Five, and I don’t think I would change that around either,” Shearer said.
Thomas Muller vs Trent Alexander-Arnold
Thomas Muller and Trent Alexander-Arnold aren’t two players you’d ever think to compare, but when you actually think about it, this is an interesting comparison to make.
Both players have equally redefined and reinvented their roles.
Muller has popularised the raumdeuter role as an attacker with both Bayern Munich and Germany, while Trent Alexander-Arnold has proven that right-backs can be playmakers too.
Both men have grown to become assist machines in recent years with Muller currently holding the record for most assists in Bundesliga history, while Alexander-Arnold has the most assists for any defender in Premier League history.
Alexander-Arnold, of course, has his whole career ahead of him yet, but, for now, you may still have to put Muller ahead of the England star based on what he has achieved in his career as a two-time Champions League winner, a World Cup winner and a multi-time Bundesliga champion.
These two are a pair of all-time greats, and you wouldn’t back against either man making a real impact at the Euros this summer.
