Enrique Confident Of Creating Productive Partnership With Downing

Liverpool defender Jose Enrique has said that he is hopeful his growing understanding with Stewart Downing can continue to develop and they can continue to provide chances for the Reds’ strikers.

Enrique was named as man of the match against Arsenal, and has spoken of his admiration for the English winger, with whom he is looking to provide crosses for the likes of Andy Carroll and Luis Suarez.

Enrique told the club’s official website: "Stewart is a very good player who is very quick and good with both feet.

"I always felt he was a very good player when I played against him for Newcastle and I'm hoping we can play well together for Liverpool.

"I am hoping we can provide some good service for Andy who is a great English centre forward.

“In the air he is the best I have ever seen and is almost unplayable.

"If Andy is 100 per cent fit and on top of his game then he will be a very important player for us."

Liverpool next face Exeter City away from home in the second round of the Carling Cup, and will look to stay unbeaten in the Premier League in their next game at home to Bolton Wanderers.
