Curtis Jones has been named in Garth Crooks' BBC Team of the Week after his two-goal haul at Leicester City on Monday.
The midfielder inspired the Reds to a rare victory on the road this season as he fired two goals in three first-half minutes, with the three points later confirmed by Trent Alexander-Arnold's sublime 25-yard curler past the helpless Daniel Iversen.
For Jones, it was his third goal in his last four Premier League outings and continues his prolonged spell in Jurgen Klopp's starting line-up, with the 22-year-old starting the Reds' last nine games in all competitions.

And his impressive display at the King Power Stadium on Monday night, which helped Liverpool close the gap between themselves and fourth-placed Manchester United to just one point, earned him a place in Crooks' Team of the Week.
Speaking of his selection of Jones, the former Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United forward said: "When you score two goals away from home and the team you're playing are fighting relegation they seldom come back from that.
"Leicester were dead and buried the moment they conceded their second goal in Monday's 3-0 defeat at King Power Stadium. The name Curtis Jones will be remembered for some considerable time in Leicester should they not win either of their remaining fixtures against West Ham or Newcastle at St James' Park.
"Liverpool on the other hand find themselves on a roll and breathing down the necks of Manchester United, desperately looking at that fourth place and a Champions League spot. If Liverpool can achieve that then the likes of Jude Bellingham and Declan Rice suddenly become affordable.
"Meanwhile, boos rang round Leicester's ground as the Foxes remain second-bottom of the Premier League table. I was never convinced at the time that dispensing with the services of Brendan Rodgers was the right thing to do."
