Xherdan Shaqiri believes his team has the necessary winning mentality required to win the English Premier League title this season.
“I played in Germany and won titles there, so I have experience of it,” he told Liverpool’s official website. “It has to be a winning mentality and the players need to be focused. The mentality is similar [here]. You need to go into games trying to win them and to give everything to do that. I am pretty sure with the talent we have in the team we can achieve a lot. Now we need to keep going this hard until the end. To work hard in training, to take the training into the games and to keep going. There is a long way to go, but we are in a very, very good way to be successful.”
The Reds spurned a chance to go 7 points clear in the midweek game against Leicester City when they were held to a draw by the Foxes but still command a healthy 5 point lead over defending champions Manchester City in the cat and mouse race. Liverpool take on West Ham United on Monday night.
