Liverpool coach Gerrard excited with Oxlade-Chamberlain arrival

Published on: 01 September 2017

Liverpool coach Steven Gerrard is delighted with their deal for Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.

Oxlade-Chamberlain snubbed a new contract at the Emirates as well as a move to Chelsea in order to sign for Jurgen Klopp on deadline day, and Gerrard has praised the addition.

“Well I think he's already become a fantastic player, and that's the reason why we spent £35m on him," the ex-Liverpool captain said.

“I think he definitely strengthens the group and the team.

“He's English, he's 24, he's just coming into his peak years, he's very quick and an exciting player.

“He seems as if he wasn't happy at Arsenal, so now hopefully he can settle down and give his best years of his career to Liverpool Football Club.

“I think it's a very positive signing."
