'World class' - Gerrard hails Alexander-Arnold and Robertson

After a record-breaking and Champions League-winning 2018-19, Liverpool’s full-backs have picked up where they left off this season in terms of their hugely impressive levels of consistency.

Ballon d’Or nominee Alexander-Arnold set a new benchmark for the number of assists recorded by a defender in the Premier League last term, with Robertson’s tally of 11 just one fewer than his teammate.

The pair have already racked up four assists apiece in 2019-20 and linked up in breathtaking fashion to create Mohamed Salah’s goal during last Sunday’s 3-1 victory over Manchester City at Anfield.
