BBC Sport pundit Garth Crooks has hailed Trent Alexander-Arnold’s consistency after naming the Liverpool star in his team of the week.
The Reds right-back has been in sensational form of late, scoring a spectacular long-range goal during last week’s 3-1 win over Newcastle.
He followed up his wonder strike against the Magpies by setting up Andy Robertson’s goal in Sunday's 2-2 draw at Tottenham.
Alexander-Arnold’s instinctive cross was headed in by Robertson for an 11th assist in all competitions this season.
Crooks praised the 23-year-old's displays against Newcastle and Spurs, in particular highlighting his quality on the ball.

“One person who has been incredibly consistent so far this season is Alexander-Arnold," he told BBC Sport.
“His use of the ball and quality of pass is second to none, while his goal against Newcastle went past Martin Dubravka like a missile. As for his volleyed cross in the first half against Spurs, that was just astonishing.”
Alexander-Arnold wasn’t the only Reds player to feature in Crooks's team of the week; Robertson was also selected after an eventful afternoon against Spurs.
The Scottish left-back also provided an assist for Diogo Jota’s goal and was sent off for a rash swipe at Emerson Royal.
Crroks said: "I don't think I have ever selected a player who provided an assist, went on to score a goal and then got himself sent off - all in the same game before.
"That said, I didn't think Andy Robertson's tackle on Emerson Royal was any more offensive than Harry Kane's challenge on him - and yet the England captain remained on the pitch."
