Jarell Quansah believes Liverpool are “ready to attack the season” as they prepare for their Premier League opener against Ipswich Town.
The Reds wrapped up their pre-season friendlies with a double-header at Anfield on Sunday, securing a 4-1 victory over Sevilla and playing out a goalless draw with Las Palmas.
These results followed three wins under new head coach Arne Slot during the summer tour of the USA.
Quansah, who played the full 90 minutes against Sevilla told Liverpoolfc.com: “That’s what pre-season is for: building performance, getting fitness.
“I think everyone feels quite sharp now and we’re ready to attack the season.
“I hope it [the win over Sevilla] was a good show for the returning crowd.
“That’s what we wanted to show, we wanted to show the hard work we have put in during the past four or five weeks.
“Yeah, good to get a 4-1 win in.
“I think the style of play the manager likes to play is very attractive, we can score some unbelievable goals.
“And it will get better and better hopefully. That’s what we’re striving for.”
He added: “It’s always going to be [like that], it’s not going to click straight away.
“He’s got a lot of new ideas that we have to get used to.
“Obviously a lot of the lads have played under the last manager for quite a while, so it’s a lot of adaptation.
“But it’ll come slowly but surely.
“There’s still a lot of work to be done on the training pitch and we’ll continue to do that.
“We’ve just got to keep building.
“Obviously the unit is still coming back together and we’ve not had many minutes together.
“We’re still adapting to a different playing style and things like that.
“I think the clean sheets will come and I think we need to prioritise that this season.
“There were too many games last season where we conceded cheap goals, and we can’t really start games going down, it’s not what you need when you’re pushing for titles.
“To set the foundations and keep clean sheets is how you win leagues.”
