Liverpool defender Jarell Quansah has sung the praises of skipper Virgil van Dijk.

The pair were together for last night's draw at Fulham, which saw Liverpool reach the Carabao Cup final 3-2 on aggregate.

Quansah told liverpoolfc.com of Van Dijk: He has shown over the last five or 10 years that he is one of the best centre-backs in the world for me the best.

So to have that next to you, talking you through the game, helps us all. Especially because we had an inexperienced right-hand side, some would say.

But me and Conor (Bradley) have played together for a long time now so we know each other's game quite well, so to have that and be able to stick together, we showed we were able to stick together during our FA Youth Cup days, so being able to transfer that onto here is a great night for us."

He also said: Just to do it today is a dream come true for me, to be honest, [and] seeing Conor grow as a player and as a person has been great for me."
