Liverpool winger Xherdan Shaqiri recognises a winning mentality in the current squad he has seen before with Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich.
Jurgen Klopp’s side have lost just once this season and top the Premier League table heading into Monday night’s match at West Ham.
The club are seeking to win their first title since 1990 and while only James Milner (with Manchester City) and Daniel Sturridge (who had limited exposure with Chelsea) have a Premier League winners’ medal Shaqiri, who has two German league titles to his name, feels there is the necessary know-how present.
He is Liverpool’s most decorated player, so ought to know.
“I played in Germany and won titles there, so I have experience of it,” said the Switzerland international, who also won three championships with Basel.
“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.”
