Kieran Trippier on Jude Bellingham
Jude did unbelievable at Dortmund. He’s taken that experience with him. He’s playing with a freedom and the players around him are going to make his standards get even better. The most scary thing is he’s only 20 year old🏴 @BBCSport

Bellingham has been shining since inking with Real Madrid during the summer, netting 10 goals in his 1st 10 starts for his new side in all tournaments.
“He can be the reason we are triumphing,” Trippier shared with the media. “Such a younger guy, with the maturity, the quality, and the aggression that Jude has, he’s scary. It’s not a surprise at all, the way that he plays for the Royal Club.
“Everyone can see he’s playing with freedom, and the footballers around him will make him even better. The frightening thing is he’s only 20 years old.”
Kieran added that the English national team has developed much since the 2018 World Cup.
“We were defeated in the Euro final, but the crucial thing is we’re progressing and doing very well,” the defender admitted.
