Stephen Warnock has identified how Everton can expose Alexander-Arnold Trent at the Merseyside derby tonight.
He brushed suggestions that Real Madrid has distracted Alexander-Arnold in his performances and believes that Arne Slot's tactics give the right a battle uphill.
Warnock, a local boy, played in three meseyside derbies in the mid-2000 0 to the hosts.
He also wants to give followers a “control of reality” about Andy Robertson after suggestions that the 30 -year -old has decreased, with his contract in 2026.
'I think you are finding at this time that in the style of Liverpool game at this time, Mohamed Salah is playing higher in the field, and Trent is isolated most of the time. If the teams play well, they can use that for their advantage, '' Warnock told Mail Sport via Anchor: Altenar.
'When they played Fulham at home, you had Antonee Robinson and (Alex) Iwobi on that left side. They immediately knew that if you double in Trent, there is a possibility.

Mohamed Salah's advanced role means that Everton could risk duplicating with Alexander-Arnold
'Unliman ndiaye on the left has been brilliant since (David) Moyes. He is such a dangerous player when he drives with the ball.
'I think, sometimes, (Ibrahima) Konate does not read the situation. Maybe I can overcome a little more towards Trent Alexander-Arnold and help. I think it has been asked to (Ryan) Gravenberch who also does a lot of that work.
'I have been in some games this year, where Conor Bradley started right and has had the same problems. Lille got behind him three or four times due to the same situation. He has caught if he is going to be tight to the extreme or leave a little because that ball will be thrown above.
“That is the system they are playing right now: risk and reward, and rewards exceed risks at this time.”
It is certainly an interesting Warnock perspective. After the 2-2 draw with Manchester United, a tougher section of the followers hinted that Alexander-Arnold had demolished tools due to the search for Real Madrid of him.
This is something that Warnock denies vigorously and suggests that United saw the opportunity of an “overload” that, due to the advanced position of Salah in the field, Everton could also explode.
This night's derby will surely be electric. Moyes has highlighted the 'intimidating and intimidating atmosphere of Goodison in the accumulation of this, the last one in Walton before the toffees move more than two miles away to the Bramley-Moore dock.
Moyes only has four 25 games against Liverpool as head of Everton, but Goodison has been a frustrating place for the leaders of the Premier League. Nine of the last 12 derbies in the blue patch have ended in raffles.

David Moyes' record against Liverpool is poor, but Goodison has proven to be a stubborn land
Rafa Benítez's Everton was expelled from the field in 2021 after 4-1 were destroyed. Some fans had gone after 20 minutes with their rivals 2-0 above.
Players should try to take advantage of the emotion of the crowd, but simultaneously rise above it, says Warnock.
“I can see him from the perspective of a local boy who has grown up, knows the area, knows the fan base and what is happening, so the accumulation during the week is:” I hope not to disappoint people, I hope not make a mistake that leads to a goal, “Warnock tells Mail Sport.
'Your mentality should not be so, but due to the pressures that are in it and the people I knew in the area, both Liverpool fans and Everton, I probably thought too much about the game.
'But when you leave, it is 100 miles per hour, it is frantic, trying not to give an inch, you want to buy the crowd, but you must drop your emotion and relax a little more.
“I remember that Rafa Benítez said in Goodison:” We cannot win this game with 10 men. “You have to keep your emotion intact. That is something that almost felt that Everton could be pushed by his crowd and that he could play in his hands.
'I don't think people give David Moyes credit for what he has achieved in his career. They are not war dogs, it is an understanding of how tactically the best of your players.
Players must rise above the burning atmosphere and not be attracted to emotion, explains Warnock
Goodison Park has organized 131 years of meseyside derbies: Everton won the first 3-0
'It will be a fascinating game. I am not worried about that, but there is that advantage in which the unknown is, but that is the majority of meseyside derbies in general.
Everton has been scoring freely since the return of Moyes: three against Tottenham, one against Brighton and four against Leicester have represented good sets, although they did not find the network against Aston Villa or Bournemouth.
Defending the left flank of Liverpool, Robertson seems ready to face Jesper Lindstrom and Jake O'Brien.
The Scot has faced a true battle for the game time with the substitute Kostas Tsimikas this campaign. In his eighth season in Merseyside, he faces criticism and questions about his future.
So much so, he admitted after a difficult time against Bukayo Saka at the beginning of this season that he is “trying to show that people are wrong.”
“People can rule out everything they want,” he said. “Last two games that I have been on the bench and I got doubts for the first time in a long time, for the first time in this club.”
Warnock simply doesn't see it. For him, Robertson is still playing some of his best football and is adapting well to a change of responsibility under the Arne slot.
'Anyone who judges Andrew Robertson in the mid -season and says he needs to replace him needs a verification of reality. What the guy has done for the club during the previous seasons, has a lot in the bank to know that the quality is there, 'he says.
Andy Robertson is still playing 'some of his best football' and is adapting to a new role
Robertson has been criticized this season, but enjoys the task of “demonstrating that people are wrong”
'He has had to adapt his position and change. It is not so myroder. Slot wants three on the back when they are accumulating or when they are getting rid of.
'He feels that Robertson is good enough in a unique V in situations individually to be able to do so. That is a side of the game that you also have to get used. People think you should be able to do it, but it is to learn a new system and learn a new way of playing.
'He is still playing some of his best football. Maybe a little more inconsistent sometimes, but only for those skills and changes (with Tsimikas) and a lack of rest during the summer (after the European championship).
“If I had the biggest game in the world tomorrow, and Liverpool was playing in the Champions League final, does that game start? Absolutely does it.
Everton will be inspired by the sandy victory of Plymouth on the weekend. A true killing giant of the FA Cup, regardless of the bodies that stay at home.
Clearly, Slot is taking the derby with the maximum seriousness resting his stars and is ready for any eventuality. As they say, the form goes out the window for these.
And as the curtain is reduced by 131 years of Good Derbies, the game really has a window: in the past, the present and future of these great old clubs.
