Liverpool midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has heaped praise on his teammates ahead of the final few games of the Premier League season.
The Reds currently sit top of the Premier League with two games to play, although Manchester City can go top if they win their game in-hand against Burnley.
Oxlade-Chamberlain has pointed out how relentless Liverpool have been this season, with only one defeat in the Premier League – which came against Manchester City at The Etihad.
Speaking to GOAL, Oxlade-Chamberlain said this:
The biggest thing for me this whole year, and I’ve said it to friends, is that when you’re removed from it you realise how big the pressure is on the boys.
Pressure to produce really good results, every week, in all types of competitions, in different countries.
I’d be working hard at the club, feeling I’d had a long day, then see the boys in the canteen, just back from a Champions League game in Italy or wherever, with their bags on their backs and they’re off to Bournemouth away.
When you’re in it, you’re just in it. Removed, you realise how relentless it is.
The England international made his long-awaited return from injury on Friday night as he came off the bench during a 5-0 win over Huddersfield at Anfield.
It was his first appearance for the club since he went off injured against Manchester City in the Champions League towards the end of last season.
