Liverpool defender Trent Alexander-Arnold is relishing his side’s testing run of upcoming fixtures.
Speaking to the club’s official website following Liverpool’s convincing 2-1 win against Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League on Saturday, Alexander-Arnold looked ahead to the team’s upcoming tests.
We know it’s going to be difficult. We are playing world-class opposition every single game we’ve got until probably the next internationals. So, performing week in and week out is a must, and getting those results that we need to show that we are one of the best teams in Europe.
The Reds lock horns with Ligue 1 giants PSG on Tuesday night as they open their 2018/19 Champions League campaign with a group stage fixture at Anfield.
Liverpool will also face testing outings against Chelsea and Manchester City in the Premier League in the not so distant future, with a fixture at Napoli in the Champions League also on the agenda.
Alexander-Arnold is looking ahead to these blockbuster fixtures with optimism and anticipation, though, insisting that his side have nothing to fear.
The best teams go out and win and that’s what we have shown today (against Tottenham).
The promising defender made his 50th appearance for Liverpool in their 2-1 win at Wembley on Saturday, with his establishment in the Reds’ starting line-up continuing to be reaffirmed.
Goals from Georginio Wijnaldum and Roberto Firmino secured an important three points for Liverpool as they swept Spurs aside.
