"We have had our struggles throughout. We started really well in terms of results, games were really close, then we had a phase of the season where games were still really close but we were constantly unlucky. Now we have been eight games unbeaten but if you say this you feel like: 'They are flying through the league.' But that is not what we are doing."
"Every single game we play it's hard work. We are mainly the team that is probably better but not enough. Hopefully we can find a moment where we can fly through the season, but for the first 19 games it has been a constant battle, close to each other, sometimes a bit lucky, sometimes a bit unlucky."
Liverpool are eight matches unbeaten after recovering from the club's worst run of results in 71 years. The team were held to a goalless draw at home to Leeds, their first goalless match in 84 games under the current manager, and sit 12 points behind Premier League leaders Arsenal. Arsenal and Manchester City are seen as the two leading title contenders, with Aston Villa close behind. The campaign's first 19 games involved frequent close contests, periods of bad luck, and ongoing struggles. Joe Gomez is being monitored for fitness ahead of the trip to Craven Cottage.
