Fabinho: Liverpool Are Still With Winning Momentum
According to Liverpool midfielder Fabinho, the Reds are still with their winning intensity despite a 1-0 midweek loss to Napoli in the Champions League as they travel to Stamford Bridge on Sunday.
Liverpool have won all their five games of the season, leading the table with twelve points but failed to extend their winning streak in the Champions League.
"I think the momentum of the team has been very important up until now," Fabinho told his club's website.
"Each victory increases our confidence and spurs us on to play even better.
"I don't think the defeat at Napoli will make us lose our momentum, we will continue trying to play well and be focused on our objectives.
"We lost the game on Tuesday, but I don't think we played badly.
"We did what we'd been doing in the Premier League, so we need to keep up this momentum. We've had a great start in the league and need to keep winning. We're playing in the same style and doing what we're used to.
Chelsea, though lost in their Champions League game against Valencia but humiliated Wolves 5-2 in their last Premier League game and Fabinho believes Liverpool will not be startled by the stats as they head into a crucial tie with the Blues.
"I know these are numbers, but they are very important numbers for us," Fabinho said.
"It shows how consistent our team is and that's really important for a side like ours which looks to do important things in the Premier League.
"I hope we continue like this like we did last season and that we get even better this season."
