Following yesterday’s incredible cup final, Conor Bradley has now been celebrating the performance of one Liverpool teammate.
Bradley, who ended up being used as right winger by Jurgen Klopp for large periods yesterday, is having a remarkable debut season in the senior side.

Perhaps the biggest praise you can give to Bradley right now is how little Trent Alexander-Arnold’s name is being mentioned during his injury absence.
The 20-year-old can go on to be a star at Anfield, and the club’s next manager couldn’t ask for a better situation at right back.
That being said, Bradley, who came off in the 72nd minute yesterday, seemed extremely grateful towards Liverpool teammate Caoimhin Kelleher after the game.
Kelleher, who was only upstaged by his captain Virgil van Dijk on the day, was integral to lifting the cup.
And following the game, Kelleher rightfully shared some celebratory photos on Instagram.

Bradley uploaded a post with the caption, “Special day.”
And among the outpouring of support in the comments on the post from Liverpool fans, there was a comment from Conor Bradley too.

Kelleher was always likely to play the final even if Alisson Becker were fit yesterday, given he is the cup keeper at Liverpool, but Bradley would have surely dropped out for Trent.
And that simply demonstrates the strength of depth the likes of either Xabi Alonso or Roberto de Zerbi may arrive to.
But given that Klopp is still in reach of a few more trophies at Liverpool before he leaves, that manager speculation can wait for another day.
And that being said, Kelleher has been praising one Liverpool player himself after the win.
