Liverpool boss Klopp: Alexander-Arnold proved himself super-important

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp was full of praise for Trent Alexander-Arnold this yesterday

While the Reds have lost Conor Bradley to injury, the return of right-back Alexander-Arnold delighted the German head coach.

Liverpool had to work hard to secure three points against Fulham, winning 3-1 at Craven Cottage.

He stated post-game: “It's super-important. Super-important. But, for example, one of the shooting stars of this season is Conor Bradley, who played the position and he played in a few games football where we all thought, 'Oh, wow... what was that?!' But nobody is like Trent. Nobody is like Trent. The way we play with him can be different, so yes, it is super-helpful and I am really happy about that.

“How I said, the squad situation in the moment – and hopefully it stays like that – is as good as it has been in this season because if you saw our bench today, that was real quality and experience and stuff like this.

“I love all the kids who've played for us – and Jarell [Quansah] did today again an incredible job – and we wouldn't be where we are without them, but it's cool to have for once all the big guns as well around. Now we have to stay greedy, staying really on it. Let's see what we can do."
