Lucas Leiva: 'Liverpool are still developing'

Lucas Leiva: 'Liverpool in good shape'

Liverpool midfielder Lucas Leiva has said that his side are "in a good moment", but has warned that they are "still developing as a team" under Jurgen Klopp.

The Reds have won seven of their last eight games in all competitions and have moved to within four points of fourth-placed Arsenal in the Premier League table.

However, Leiva claims that Liverpool aren't getting carried away as they "go game by game".

The Brazilian told told Sky Sports News: "It's always the same. You have a few good wins and people start to talk again.

"I think, very honestly, we just go game by game and we are still developing as a team. Of course we are in a good moment, in good shape - everyone is getting back from injury.

"Let's see what it will take until the end of the season, but of course if we keep performing like this for sure we are going to win more games than lose."

After seemingly being on the way out of Liverpool in the summer, Leiva has battled back to become a mainstay in the starting XI.
