Published on November 6, 2019, Liverpool's Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has been in impressive form since returning from a serious knee injury, scoring his fourth goal in as many games in the Reds' 2-1 Champions League win over Genk.
Despite his recent success, the 26-year-old midfielder feels he is still short of his best, stating, 'I feel like I'm getting better,' in an interview with the club website.
Oxlade-Chamberlain has been working to regain his pre-injury form, particularly in terms of dribbling and playmaking, which he believes can take time to recover.
His goalscoring threat and playmaking qualities have created a selection headache for manager Juergen Klopp, who will have to decide whether to include Oxlade-Chamberlain in the starting lineup for the upcoming match against Manchester City.
For Oxlade-Chamberlain, the key to getting into the team is to press with a certain intensity, as demonstrated by his teammates Jordan Henderson, Fabinho, and Georginio Wijnaldum in their recent match against Tottenham Hotspur.
