Liverpool left-back Andy Robertson believes a winning mentality is a big reason for the Reds topping the Premier League.
Jurgen Klopp’s side ground out an ugly 1-0 victory at Brighton on Saturday, in another example of a game they would have dropped points in previously.
There is a never-say-die attitude at the club currently and Robertson has told the Guardian of its importance moving forward:
The two Brighton games have been massive for us.
It’s just the winning mentality and finding a way.
But that’s what all the teams are doing now. City haven’t played their best but have been winning games and Tottenham have done the same, so I think we are all showing signs of doing that.
Whoever wins the league will look back on some games and go ‘Do you know what, we probably weren’t at our best there, and that was probably one that helped us turn one point into three or zero into one’.
As Robertson alludes to, Liverpool have not always hit top gear this season, but their ability to dig deep and pick up three points has been hugely impressive.
It is impossible to win titles without having that skill and the Reds have given themselves a great chance of clinching Premier League glory in May.
Next up is the visit of Crystal Palace on Saturday afternoon, as Liverpool look to continue their run of not dropping a point to a non-top-six side this season.
