Conor Bradley says it still blows his mind to hear his name being sung by Liverpool fans.

Bradley has become a firm fans' favourite at Anfield thanks to his all-action displays for the Reds.

He produced another stunning performance to help Arne Slot's men reach another Carabao Cup final following their 4-0 second leg victory over Spurs on Thursday night.

The Northern Ireland international raised the roof with a typically full-blooded tackle on Heung-min Son, bringing up memories of his now legendary challenge on Kyllian Mbappe earlier this season.

The home fans responded with the 21-year-old's name ringing around Anfield with Bradley opening up on what it means to him.

"It still blows my mind, I think it’ll blow my mind my whole career that I’m at this football club," he told liverpoolfc.com.

"It’s so special and I’m so thankful for all the fans for all the support they give not only me but the whole team. It’s obviously a special place to play football."

As well as shutting out Ange Postecoglou's side Bradley earned more plaudits for his attacking prowess as he set up Dominik Szoboszlai for Liverpool's third goal on the night.

Now he is hoping he can add to his medal collection when they take on Newcastle United in next month's final.

"Really, really happy," he said. "Obviously we knew it was going to be a tough game and we’re just really glad to get the 4-0 win and get through to the final. Really looking forward to the final now and hopefully we can bring another trophy home as well.

"Of course it’ll be a tough game. Newcastle are a really good team, especially at the minute they’re playing some really good football. I watched them [on Wednesday night] and they were very good against Arsenal.

"So we know it’ll be a tough game but we’re really looking forward to it and hopefully we can bring another trophy back home to Liverpool."
