Liverpool striker Rhian Brewster has no doubts about the quality of teammate Roberto Firmino.

Brewster believes Firmino should be firmly in contention for the Ballon d'Or.

Asked where the Brazilian ranks among the world's front men, Brewster said: "Easily top three. As a striker, he is up there as one of the best. He is an amazing player and so underrated in the football industry.

"Only lately is he being regarded as one of the best at what he does. He's not a typical nine, he's his own nine, he made it himself.

"He comes in, goes high, he is all over the place to be honest. That's what I think helps the team a lot."
