BeritaMengapa Cody Gakpo percaya Liverpool tidak memiliki batasan musim ini

The Reds telah membuat awal yang menggembirakan untuk hidup di bawah Arne Slot, memenangkan sembilan dari 10 pertandingan pertama pelatih kepala yang bertanggung jawab di semua kompetisi.

Tim Slot saat ini duduk di puncak Liga Premier dan telah mengambil enam poin dari dua pertandingan pembukaan Liga Champions mereka, serta melanjutkan pertahanan mereka atas trofi Piala Carabao dengan mengalahkan West Ham United 5-1 di putaran ketiga.

Pertemuan hari Minggu dengan Chelsea di Anfield menandai dimulainya kembali kampanye klub setelah jeda internasional Oktober dan, pada target jangka panjang Liverpool, Gakpo mengatakan kepada Sky Sports: “Semoga kita bisa memenangkan segalanya!

“Ini adalah awal musim, kami berada di semua kompetisi dan ketika Anda berpartisipasi dalam kompetisi Anda berpartisipasi untuk menang, jadi itulah tujuan kami dan saya pikir musim lalu kami menunjukkan bahwa kami bisa melakukannya.

“Kami sangat dekat dengan banyak hal tapi ya, kami melewatkannya sedikit pada akhirnya. Tapi itu juga memberi kami harapan dan kekuatan untuk musim ini, bahwa kami tahu kami bisa sampai sejauh itu, jadi tahun ini kami akan mendorongnya lebih jauh.

“Kami memiliki tim yang bagus, banyak kualitas dan kami mengenal satu sama lain sedikit lebih lama sekarang, jadi ya, semua hal itu membantu.”

The appointment of Slot in the summer following Jürgen Klopp’s reign of almost nine years commenced a new era for Liverpool, of course.

Gakpo has since appeared in all of the boss’ games in charge to date and laid on the assist for Diogo Jota in a 1-0 win at Crystal Palace last time out.

On whether he enjoys the challenges that come with change, he replied: “I like adapting to different things because that makes a person grow in every aspect of his life. So, yeah, I like that, to be fair.

“So then we have to grow, we are forced to grow, we are forced to learn new things and getting out of your own comfort zone. As I said, I think every person will grow at that point, so I think it’s good.

“Obviously we have a new manager in, so that’s a change. Some things changed inside the club as well, so that’s a change as well. The way we train, the way we play is a little bit different. So, we all have to adapt and I think it’s going to make us better as a team and as a club.”

The Netherlands international was also asked about You’ll Never Walk Alone and, approaching the two-year anniversary of his signing for the club, how the anthem continues to impact him.

“When everybody is singing it and you are making yourself ready for the game, you are on the pitch and everybody is singing the song… I don’t know why but it’s just an amazing song,” said Gakpo.

“With amazing fans, in an amazing stadium. It always gives you goosebumps.

“What it means to me is it feels like everybody is always having your back at the club. Inside the club but also the fans, no matter what.

“That makes all the players go that one extra mile or a little bit more percentage that we can give every game. So, they are really helping us.”
