Adam Lallana: 'Liverpool ready to attack'

Liverpool midfielder Adam Lallana has insisted that his team are ready to "attack" the new season.

Lallana is expected to miss at least the next two months with a thigh injury that he sustained during pre-season.

The England international has admitted that he is "gutted" to be missing the start of the new Premier League campaign, but has backed Liverpool to hit the ground running when they face Watford next weekend.

As gutted as I am personally to be missing the start of the season, I have nothing but confidence in how the team is going to do. Lads are in great shape and ready to attack it. My focus is getting back and supporting the boys 💪🔴Thanks for all the kind messages #ynwa

Liverpool's first two Premier League matches are away to Watford and at home to Crystal Palace, before welcoming Arsenal and visiting Manchester City in their next two.
