00:00Curtis Jones has emerged as one of Liverpool's standout performers this campaign, delivering
00:07a string of impressive displays that have not only cemented his importance at Anfield,
00:12but also caught the attention of England manager Thomas Tuchel.
00:18Once hindered by injuries that stalled his development, Jones has now found consistency
00:25and is thriving under Arnie Schlott.
00:28His versatility has been a major asset for Liverpool as demonstrated when he stepped
00:32in as a makeshift right back during a crucial Merseyside Derby victory.
00:39Despite playing out of position, he was composed on the ball, tenacious in his duels and instrumental
00:46in securing the win.
00:48Comfortable in possession and tactically astute, Jones has played a key role in Liverpool's
00:54build-up play, linking defence to attack with confidence.
00:59His ability to dictate the tempo combined with his tireless work ethic has made him a fan
01:05favourite.
01:06The Kop appreciates his passion and performances like his recent Derby display, only reinforcing
01:13his status as a local hero.
01:16The one Trent Alexander-Arnold back.
01:18I think he might be a couple of weeks away.
01:20Conor Bradley's closing in.
01:21It might just be course of course, to be honest with you.
01:25If Liverpool know that they're going to have a team they need to break down and yes, Bradley,
01:30who's coming back, going to have to be careful with him.
01:32It's a good option for Arna Slott to have, but massive credit for Curtis Jones and that win
01:40wasn't meant a lot for him being from the city.
01:45Jones' club form has also translated onto the international stage.
01:48He earned four England caps with Tuchel recognising his composure and technical ability.
01:54Whether in midfield or filling in elsewhere, Jones continues to shine.
01:59His development this season has been remarkable and with Liverpool pushing for silverware and
02:05England gearing up for the next World Cup, his impact could be felt at both club and international
02:12level.
