Jose Enrique is relishing his partnership down the left flank with Stewart Downing and is confident the pair can provide the likes of Andy Carroll with the ammunition to strike fear into Barclays Premier League defenders.

Liverpool's No.3, who was named man of the match in Saturday's 2-0 win over Arsenal, admits he has always been an admirer of the England winger and is happy to have him on his side rather than defending against him.

"Stewart is a very good player who is very quick and good with both feet," Enrique told Liverpoolfc.tv.

"I always felt he was a very good player when I played against him for Newcastle and I'm hoping we can play well together for Liverpool.

"I am hoping we can provide some good service for Andy who is a great English centre forward. In the air he is the best I have ever seen and is almost unplayable.

"If Andy is 100 per cent fit and on top of his game then he will be a very important player for us."
