Former Liverpool midfielder Jamie Redknapp is confident that new signing Paul Konchesky will be a hit at Anfield.

The left-back inked a four-year deal for the Reds on deadline day after joining from Fulham in a deal reportedly worth £4 million. And Redknapp feels that Liverpool have snapped up a quality player who can make a big difference to Roy Hodgson's side.

"Liverpool fans, who may have been looking for big money signings, might not appreciate the quality of Paul Konchesky," the pundit told the Reds' official website.

"But he's a good signing for Roy Hodgson, who knows what he is getting after they worked together at Fulham last season.

"I played with Paul at Spurs and he's a superb one-on-one defender, with quick feet and who loves the showdown between full-back and winger. It's hard to find good left backs. He's one of them."
