Ibrahima Konate is happy with the new defensive duties he has at Liverpool to help with Trent Alexander-Arnold's attacking role.

Alexander-Arnold is playing as a new 'inside fullback', which requires Konate to move wide when he pushes further forward.

The France defender said: "I had zero concerns when the manager asks you to go and do a slightly different role.

"That it is his job, to sort out the team and if we have to readjust in games that is absolutely fantastic. It's a real pleasure to try and help and if he said go on take over from Alisson in goal then I would do that as well!

"We all know Trent is a great player and obviously the closer he gets to the opposition he creates a threat. But I'm only human, I can't cover for him down that side all the time! We have to remember that he is a complete player with lots of assets and abilities, both offensively and defensively, so he won't be forgetting his defensive duties because I can't cover him all the time."
