Former Liverpool midfielder Jan Molby has spoken of his appreciation for summer signing Georginio Wijnaldum.
The Netherlands international has quickly established himself as a key member of Liverpool's midfield since his arrival from Newcastle United, helping the Reds to the top of the Premier League table.
Wijnaldum also scored his first goal for the club to cap off a 6-1 rout of Watford before the international break, and Molby revealed that he has been a long-term admirer of the midfielder.
"Wijnaldum is a clever player. I have always thought he was a really good player and he fits the way we want to play," he told the club's official website.
"He breaks the lines and he makes great runs forward. He has had more of a deeper role so far at Liverpool, but it doesn't surprise me that he can play there.
"He is technically very good and the more you see of him, the more you like. He has an excellent goalscoring record from midfield."
Liverpool's first match after the international break comes away to Southampton.
