Liverpool youngster Luke Chambers hoping versatility works in his favour

Liverpool youngster Luke Chambers is hoping his versatility can bring him more game time.

The 19-year-old played at centre-back for Liverpool against Olympique Lyon during the Dubai Super Cup last week.

With the Reds preparing for the rest of the Premier League season, Chambers is hoping to play his part, regardless of where he plays.

"When you hear something like that, it's always a really big confidence boost," Chambers reacted when speaking to Liverpoolfc.com regarding praise from manager Jurgen Klopp.

"I'll keep going in the gym and keep building up as much as I can. I'm sure that'll come.

"It's always good adding a new position into your game. Left centre-back I've played quite a few times for the U19s in the Youth League.

"Maybe in the future, you never know, I could be a left centre-back or left-back. It's always good trying out new positions.

"If they want to put me at left centre-back or left-back, I think I can do a job there. I think it gives you more opportunities if you have more positions that you can play.

"At left centre-back and left-back, I think I can do them both really comfortably."
