Liverpool player, Naby Keita has said he was sad to not feature in Liverpool’s Champions League final clash vs Spurs in 2018-19.
According to him, every player dreams of games like that and it would have been beautiful for his career.
He, however, said he is now back to full fitness and ready to prove to the manager that he should start more.
He added that he really wants to help the team.
His words, “It was quite hard for me. All players dream of playing in a big final like that and it would have been great for me,”
“I was rather sad and I can’t say it didn’t affect me.”
On their next EPL game ve Brighton, “I would love to be involved,”
“My injury put me back a bit but now I feel as though I am back. I’ve been quite pleased with my form but I’d like to do better.
“I feel that, if I get to play in a lot of matches, I can really try to help the team. I try to play every training session as if it were a match and I always try to raise my game.
“I raise my head and hope to be selected to go out there and play and win.”
On Liverpool trying to win the EPL after several years, “Well, a record like that can only serve to motivate me more!
“We’re all here to work for exactly those sort of records and then to surpass them. Hopefully by winning every match those records will come naturally.
“We don’t want to repeat the error – if you can call it an error after getting 97 points – of falling into second place at the last hurdle at the end of the season.
“We want to push for new records right until the end of the season. We want to beat our record. It’s in the club’s thinking to do so.”
