News'It's a joy to play with Alexis Mac Allister - I can't praise him enough'

Mac Allister was a key figure in the Reds' turnaround against his former club at Anfield on Sunday, providing the assist for Mohamed Salah's second-half winner.

Bradley hailed the No.10's all-round contribution that saw him scoop up Carlsberg Player of the Match honours afterwards.

"He's just an unbelievable footballer," Bradley told Liverpoolfc.com. "I've never seen someone retain the ball so well. He's so calm on the ball and he's so composed.

"He's just a wonderful footballer and he's a joy to play with. I can't praise him enough, to be honest."

Mac Allister and his teammates responded well in L4, having fallen behind to Danny Welbeck's opening goal inside 90 seconds.

Luis Diaz equalised midway through the first half, setting the stage for Salah to clinch the three points after the break.

Bradley assessed: "It was a very tough game. Obviously it was disappointing to go 1-0 down so early, but I thought our reaction after the goal was brilliant and I think we created so many chances. We could have scored more on another day. We're buzzing with the win.

"It was a perfect response from the goal. If you're going to concede early, I don't think it's too bad. You've got loads of time to recover from it.

"I thought the response after it was brilliant and the chances we created were really good. Probably on another day we tuck away a few more but we're happy with the result."

A goalscorer for Northern Ireland during the international break, Bradley started and completed the full match against Brighton, in which he was involved in regular duels with the tricky Simon Adingra on the flank.

"He was really good down my side," the 20-year-old said. "It was a difficult game but I like to test myself against these types of players.

"It's good for me and it's a good learning experience. I'm really happy with how it went.

"It's been a mental couple of months and obviously the last week has been really good. Getting the first goal for my country was special and then to come back to Liverpool and get the three points, I'm really happy and I just want to keep going now.

"The games just keep coming, so we've just got to keep preparing, keep focused and just keep going and hopefully keep winning."
