Luton Town winger Andros Townsend says Liverpool have changed over the past two years.

Townsend impressed in last week's 1-1 draw against the Reds at Kenilworth Road.

He told BBC Sport: "It's completely different to two years ago, when they had the two number sixes in Jordan Henderson and Fabinho, who were the workhorses of the side. They didn't get forward as much and were prepared to sit back and wait for the counter attack. Cut out balls and feed the attackers.

“Now, when the ball is with the defence, you have three midfielders who all have the quality to get on the ball and can turn and play forward. Mac Allister is the number six now and he has immense quality. You can't allow anyone to have the ball and you're constantly scanning now. You have Jota who likes to come inside, Salah who roams and Nunez who likes to run in behind.

“You don't have a minute's rest and have to be switched on for 90 minutes. If they play three in midfield and you have three, you can mark man for man. The problem is you have Trent Alexander-Arnold now who wants to play as a midfielder. You can't let him have the ball because he probably has the best delivery of all of them."
