Liverpool winger Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain insists that he is "in a really good place physically" at Anfield following his deadline-day move from Arsenal.

Liverpool winger Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has said that he feels "in a really good place" following his recent move from Arsenal in the summer.

The England international made the move to Merseyside on deadline day, and following his first three months at Anfield the 24-year-old has claimed that he is starting to find his way under coach Jurgen Klopp.

"I think the more I play and the more consistently I play I'll be physically fully up to speed with the demands, but I definitely feel that I'm in a really good place physically and I think I've made strides in that respect, with how intense the training is here and how demanding this manager is," Oxlade-Chamberlain told the club's official website.

"I think I've definitely improved on that and I think I'll keep improving with doing the things that he wants and keep practicing the way he wants to train. The more I play, obviously physically you adapt and get fitter and stronger, so I've definitely got an understanding of what's needed now and how he wants the boys to play and specifically me in my position.

"So it's just a case of making sure I keep doing the right things and when I get the opportunities to play, just try and do as well as I can. Goals and assists is what my role is - and to work hard for the team as well, so I make sure I always do that."

Oxlade-Chamberlain has made 12 appearances for Liverpool across all competitions this season, scoring once and setting up another.
