It is not very common that defenders are named as Man of the Matches, but for Liverpool, both their fullbacks will always be in the conversation, because they are the mischievous ones while attacking.

Liverpool's attacks are not only due to their coveted front three but also the bright talents that they have on their wings. Andy Robertson has been helping Sadio Mane all season and TAA has been racking up assists for fun from the right side.

Against Barcelona, the young Trent was on the absolute top of his game, pushing the defence behind with his constant presence in the forward regions. He troubled Jordi Alba more than he has been troubled the whole season. This kid has the capability to do that to Tottenham's compact defence which chooses its poison to be the wings.

Also, he has the edge ahead of Robertson particularly due to Trippier defending the right-hand side along with Sissoko which is problematic for the attackers. TAA, however, has to deal with Winks and Rose, most probably, which is easier to exploit compared to the other wing.
