Former Liverpool midfielder Danny Murphy compared Trent Alexander-Arnold's crossing ability to that of David Beckham.
The former Manchester United winger was famous for his dead ball delivery and Alexander-Arnold now follows suit.
The Reds' back ended last season with 12 assists in the Premier League, tied with what Christian Eriksen of the Spurs scored for his team during the campaign.
And the English international started this season where he stopped last year, offering a center cross for Divock Origi to bring Liverpool's fourth goal to Norwich City in his first Premier League match on Friday night. .
Alexander Arnold's offensive prowess has become so phenomenal that Murphy thinks the 20-year-old could easily become a right-back.

"Trent's excellent technical pass and technical skills that we have not seen since a backpour for many years," Murphy told TalkSPORT Monday morning.
"Trent, for me, is as good a cross-country player as I've seen since David Beckham.
"His crossing is already as good as Beckham, definitely. His stagings and crossings are phenomenal.
"His technical abilities, his pass skills are very unusual for a right-back. It is normally a midfielder who has this type of quality.
"Ideally, you want to see him as a back winger. He is sometimes defended, but he will create and score goals regardless of his position.
"Trent Alexander-Arnold is 20 years old and he participated in the last two finals of the Champions League!
"It's a scouter who lives the dream and is technically superb."
