Andy Robertson has thanked Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp for the faith he has shown since he arrived from Hull City in 2017.
The Scotland captain was a bargain signing from the relegated-Tigers but has since become one of the world's best left-backs.
And Robertson has credited Klopp for helping him develop his game.
He told the club's website: "Obviously the faith to sign me, first and foremost, from a relegated club, which probably I don't think I got many Liverpool fans excited about my signing when people like Mo [Salah] and Ox [Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain] were getting signed at the same time.
"The manager saw something in me that he could develop into being a decent player and I'm glad he's done that.
"It took me time, the first three or four months was tough, but my relationship with him was the same then as it is now.
"He still looks to improve me every day in training and he still looked to make be better back then as he does now. So my relationship with him is amazing and long may that continue because he's improved my game, he's improved me as a person and that's what you look for in a manager. So I couldn't ask for much better.
"I don't think any of the lads could and hopefully he's here for many more years to come."
