The "Red Army" Liverpool will host the "White Lily" Tottenham Hotspur at home in the 34th round of the 2024/25 Premier League. Liverpool striker Gakpo said that winning the Premier League title would be a great achievement, but also stressed that the team would never relax until the last moment.
In the last round of the league, Liverpool defeated Leicester 1-0 after Arnold scored a goal at a critical moment. After winning all three points, Liverpool currently ranks first in the standings with 79 points, 12 points ahead of second-placed Arsenal. Therefore, Liverpool only needs to remain unbeaten in this round of games to lock in the championship early.
The 25-year-old Liverpool striker Gakpo said, “This is the moment we have been working hard for all season. We lost the English League Cup before and were eliminated in the FA Cup and the Champions League. These are the moments when the team failed to reach the level we wanted. But if we can win the Premier League title at the weekend, it will be an incredible season for all of us and an important cornerstone for moving forward in the future. ”
“When you start playing football and learn about the major European leagues, everyone will agree that the Premier League is one of the best leagues in Europe and even the world. Being able to become a Premier League champion is undoubtedly an achievement that every player will dream of in his life. If it can be achieved, it will be a great achievement.”
In addition, Liverpool coach Sloter has also been holding on, and the team cannot relax until the last moment.
Gakpo said, “This is the way the coach always faces every game, and it is also the consensus we have communicated with each other. We will never relax until the last moment. Facing this game, we have the same mentality. I hope we can win and really put a good end to all this, so let’s go all out together.”
“Maybe Tottenham’s performance this season is not the best in recent years, but everyone knows that they have many high-level players and the overall strength is very strong. This is by no means a game that you can say ‘definitely win’ or ‘definitely get a draw’. This is the Premier League, and every game is difficult, no matter who the opponent is.”
In addition, Gakpo also shared, “I think this is a good season for the team, and I have grown a lot. As we discussed before, my position has changed and I have scored a lot of goals. Of course, I have also experienced injuries in the process, which has affected my performance to some extent.”
“Overall, it’s been a very good season, but it’s not over yet and hopefully we can end it on a high note together.”
