Liverpool finished fourth last season, qualifying for the Champions League. Jurgen Klopp has struggled to add strength in depth to his squad, raising doubts of their chances of staying in the top four.

The Brazilian was the subject of much praise from manager Jurgen Klopp earlier this week after helping the Merseysiders overcome his former club Hoffenheim to reach the Champions League group stage.

The attacker expects Liverpool to finish in he top four positions again this campaign but feels they have a real chance of winning their first top flight title since 1990.

“We are feeling good and what we want to achieve is pretty clear,” he said.

“We must at least repeat our performance of last year by finishing in the top four – and then fight for the title.

“The team is also very motivated by the experience of being back in the Champions League. The target is to finish in the best possible position and we are aiming high.”

“I think we have a chance because the Premier League is a very open competition this year.

“For me there doesn’t exist an out-and-out favourite."
