The Liverpool striker Roberto Firmino is of the opinion that the Reds are going to get back their confidence after the difficult start of the calendar year.
The Merseysiders made a series of poor results at the beginning of 2017, in which they lost a lot of points, but have improved recently, as they had victories over Tottenham and Arsenal and even though defeat by Leicester between those games and before that of the Hull, the Brazilian is optimistic that the team would finish the season strongly.
`It is hard to explain the contrast in our presentation and frankly, I don`t know why we have such difficulties but we strive to overcome them. It is good that we are against the strong stock level and this helps the return of confidence.`, commented Firmino.
`We have to remember how at the beginning of the season we were winning a lot of matches from livescores and that at one point we were on the first place in the ranking. Recently we have made some disappointing results, but we are motivated to make a winning streak until the end of the campaign. The aim is to qualify in the top four and to return to Europe. Certainly, we are going to fight to the last, but I believe that everything will be clarified in recent matches.`, he added.
On Sunday, Liverpool will welcome Burnley in the Premier League by going back to the defeat with 0:2 by against the team in August. By the end of the campaign, the more difficult matches from livescores are against Manchester City (guest) and Everton (host), the rest are against teams outside the top six.

Legend of Arsenal: `Wenger knows he is a goner.`
After the defeat with 1:5 against Bayern Munich the boss Arsene Wenger looked like a man who knows how his time at Arsenal has expired, according to the club`s former defender Lee Dixon. And he added that he was sad to see his former coach in this situation.
`To see him in that situation saddens me even more as I know what a winner he was born.`, said the player who is now at the age of 52 years and deals with his restaurant in London and worked as a television commentator.
`By watching the team as a team, it`s not bad. But clearly missing some ideas and character to be won the Championship. I think Arsene is aware that our level is currently low. And the bad thing is that the players do not give this response that he wants from them.`
`It is so obvious. Moreover, they have been struggling for a long time and then suddenly lose the inspiration. I think Arsene knows that his time has expired. I have never seen him look like that before.`, added Lee Dixon, who played for the Gunners 14 years from 1988 to 2002.
After Arsenal is already out of European tournaments analyzed by livescores and 10 points behind leader Chelsea in the Premiership, the match with Sutton in the 5th round of the FA Cup tournament seems very important.
