Liverpool defender Jarell Quansah is delighted with his senior run this season.
Quansah has impressed as he's stood in for senior teammates due to injury and suspension.
You're prepared for anything, so as long as I can impact the team at one end, and now both ends, it's always good," Quansah told Liverpoolfc.com.
I just prefer defending but obviously if I can contribute with an assist or a goal every now and again, I'm always happy.
It's been nice; I've wanted to do it. I just wanted the opportunity, that was the biggest thing for me.
I'm glad that I've had it and taken it so far, but it's about kicking on and improving, I've got so much to improve still; times in the game there I've given the ball away. I'm a perfectionist so I'm always working on the pitch to get better and better."
On a long Carabao Cup run, the defender also said: "Any chance I get, whether it's this competition, Europa League, Premier League, FA Cup, I'm ready to step up and give what I can give for the team."
