Liverpool are as low as 15 points behind Arsenal coming into the second phase of the Premier League campaign. Apart from not doing well in the domestic league, Liverpool have also struggled in the cup competitions.

The immediate focus will be on the Premier League and FA Cup before the Champions League action begins in February with theround of 16 games against Real Madrid.
"I think everything. As a football player, as now a Liverpool player and as a Liverpool fan, I think we have to improve everything. So, we have to achieve all trophies possible, we have start again the chase for first position – we know it’s tough – but we have other competitions as well so we are trying to chase everything," said Thiago Alcantara. So far this season, the 31-year-old has played in eight league matches for Liverpool and a further five more in the Champions League.
