Liverpool fullback Alexander-Arnold: Bradley has been outstanding

Trent Alexander-Arnold is delighted for Conor Bradley over his breakthrough at Liverpool this season.

Both players are fullbacks and Alexander-Arnold says his young teammate deserves his current positive press.

"Outstanding!" he told liverpoolfc.com. "Great games. It's one of those where you hope that when you're out that the lads keep the form up and keep up the momentum that I was part of.

"That's all you can hope [for] and I think the lads, especially Conor as well, the performances he and the team have put in have been outstanding and kept that momentum up and kept our run going."

He added: "I think our intensity has definitely gone up. The way we're pressing and our counter-pressing and the intensity of our whole game and the speed at which we play is almost reminiscent of years ago when we were probably at the peak of our powers as a team.

"It's very similar. Different players, different style of football but the intensity is something that always remains and that's something that's drilled into us and demanded of us. It's what we enjoy doing and we see it work, so we buy into it."
