Curtis Jones would ‘walk into almost any team in the Premier League’ and should keep his spot in Liverpool’s starting XI for this weekend’s clash against Arsenal.

That’s according to Harry Redknapp, who says the midfielder showed his true self in the Reds’ 5-1 win against West Ham on Wednesday.

Jurgen Klopp’s side booked their spot in the Carabao Cup semi-finals after a demolition of the Hammers at Anfield.

Jones scored twice in the second half and impressed in his midfield role.

Liverpool take on table-topping Arsenal on Saturday, when Klopp can be expected to revert back to his first choice midfield.

But Redknapp says Jones is worthy of keeping his place, and he’d be a regular at many other Premier League sides.

He could go and walk into almost any team in the Premier League and play there but he obviously wants to stay and win his place at Liverpool,’ Redknapp said on Sky Sports.

‘It looks like a matter of time before he gets that regular berth in the team. He looks too good not to play.’

‘Selection problems for Saturday, great problems.

‘Curtis Jones, does he play Saturday? One or two of them tonight have made it difficult for him to leave them out. No injuries, perfect night, five goals. Absolutely slaughtered West Ham tonight.’
