Trent Alexander-Arnold says he is "honoured to have shared a pitch" with Roberto Firmino
Trent
"He’s just a special player, someone who has never caused a fuss, who has always just got on with what he needed to do, and played at a very, very high level for a number of years. I’m honoured to have shared the pitch with him, and he’s done things I’ve honestly never seen before!
"He gets the credit he deserves at Liverpool, and rightly so. People love him. The players love him, the fans absolutely love him. Potentially at times he might have been undervalued [by the outside world] but in terms of our team, he’s been shown the love he deserves, and I'm sure that will be the case this weekend again."
"I love it," he said. "I like playing in there, I’m enjoying it, finding myself in positions where I can affect the game. But for me, it’s not too much of a change. It’s more little tweaks, but it’s still the same game, the objective is still the same, to go out there and try to play the same way. I have just been getting the ball in a slightly different area.
"I’ve got experience in there, and that's helped. Obviously it was in the academy and not the first team, but I understand the position and the intricacies which come with it.
I like the responsibility, 100 percent. I enjoy that feeling, I love playing in the big moments, big games, and feeling like I can affect those games. That’s football, for me. I’ve always enjoyed that."
