Former Celtic manager Neil Lennon was full of praise for Liverpool midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain during the win over AC Milan in the San Siro.
The Reds went to Italy with the top spot in Group B well and truly wrapped up and Jurgen Klopp took advantage by naming a rotated side to face the Serie A leaders.
Part of that rotation saw Oxlade-Chamberlain return to the starting XI having recently lost his place to Thiago in the Premier League.
Speaking to BBC Sport, Lennon suggests that the 28-year-old may have done enough to warrant a prolonged opportunity.
I’d love to see Oxlade-Chamberlain keep fit for a while and get a run in the team. He’s been so dynamic tonight.
The former Arsenal man has been enjoying an impressive season thus far and earned a 7.0 Sofascore rating last night.
Caped on 35 occasions by England, Oxlade-Chamberlain has provided two assists in 18 appearances across all competitions this term.

Dynamic is spot on.
Injury-free and seemingly full of confidence, the ‘Ox’ provides a whole new dimension to Klopp’s midfield ranks and can be an effective weapon moving forwards in this campaign.
Still very much involved on four fronts, the German manager will need the entire squad to compete for major honours at the end of the season.
It’s Aston Villa up next for the Reds at Anfield and Thiago may have to displace the £16.2million valued ace in training this week.
