Pep Lijnders, the assistant manager of Liverpool, has expressed the club's desire to accomplish the seemingly impossible by targeting victory in four different tournaments this season.
Liverpool players, including Dominik Szoboszlai and Diogo Jota, have publicly voiced their belief in the team's ability to win the Premier League, FA Cup, League Cup, and Europa League.
Two seasons ago, Liverpool came tantalisingly close to achieving a historic feat by clinching the FA Cup and League Cup while finishing as runners-up in the Premier League and Champions League.
Lijnders believes that the optimistic outlook of players like Szoboszlai and Jota reflects the high standards and winning mentality within the squad. He expressed his support for their dreams, emphasising that such aspirations are integral to competing for Liverpool.
The Liverpool midfield has undergone a transformation with new signings like Szoboszlai, Alexis Mac Allister, and Ryan Gravenberch, filling the void left by the departures of Fabinho, Jordan Henderson, and Roberto Firmino during the close season.
Lijnders acknowledged that replacing players of the caliber of Fabinho, Firmino, and Henderson is a challenging task but emphasized the importance of identifying the unique qualities each new signing brings to the team.
Liverpool's support for Luis Diaz during his family crisis was also reiterated by Lijnders. The Colombian winger has been granted compassionate leave by the club as he awaits news about his father, who was kidnapped. Lijnders affirmed that the entire club is providing support, and they are in close contact with the authorities, who are actively working to ensure the well-being of Diaz's family.
