Jan Molby believes fellow Dane Daniel Agger is ready to cement his place in Liverpool's back four, breaking up the traditional pairing of Jamie Carragher and Sami Hyypia.

Molby says the 21-year-old's performances this season prove why he's got the potential to become one of Europe's hottest defensive talents. And Anfield's first Great Dane believes manager Rafa Benitez will keep faith in the youngster for this weekend's trip to Stamford Bridge.

'He is definitely threatening to break up the partnership of Carra and Sami now,' said Molby.
