Dejan Lovren Wants Liverpool To Become One Of The Greatest Teams Like Barcelona

Dejan Lovren wants Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool team to be remembered as one of the greatest in the sport.

Many tip Pep Guardiola’s Barcelona side to be the most formidable side in football and Lovren wants the current Reds to join them right up the charts.

After missing out on the Premier League title by just one point, the Reds have created a humongous 22-point lead at the top this season. They are coming off a Champions League winning campaign and is currently viewed as one of the most lethal teams in Europe.

“I’ve been there from the beginning with Jurgen and it took quite a while, two or three years to build everything up,” Lovren told Sky Sports. “Let’s say, we clicked this year – maybe even last year – but we missed out by one point.

“Now we understand each other, what we need, what we want. And I especially want that we are remembered maybe like the Barcelona team that won in four years [about] 20 trophies.

“Why should we not do that? I think we can do it and I want that we are remembered as one of the best teams that have played – not only for this year, but for many, many years. We are still hungry, still greedy and this is what makes us special to be honest.

“I think many other teams would go easy now with a 22-point lead, but we don’t look at these 22 points. We are just focused game by game and this I think is the simplest way to be the best.

“It is a good experience also for the younger ones, to understand that even if you are on top you still need to work as hard as if you were in the middle of the table or in last position.”
