It’s a setback, but, as he put pen to paper, the England international was asked if he felt the club were on the verge of something, with the team top of the Premier League: “Yes, definitely,” he told the club’s website. “I think we were so close last year one game separated us from that but the journey showed the progression weve had. Domestically this year, its something were aiming for as well to win the Premier League. I think we have all the tools; the squad is so strong, we have so much strength in depth, that it is definitely feasible. Weve shown that with our start. We go on the pitch and believe we can beat anybody. I think every team in world football fears playing us, especially coming to Anfield, so I think that shows the stature of the club.” Liverpool face a make or break Champions League test against Napoli at Anfield on Tuesday night.The Reds must win to have any chance of progress. If PSG win, Liverpool need a 1-0 victory or to win by two goals or more.A draw or defeat would mean an early exit for the team.
