Liverpool captain insists they are determined to win all four competitions this season

That's the spirit, that's the attitude of a squad packed with both formidable players and excellent morale.

The words of Liverpool's skipper Jordan Henderson are as straightforward as it gets. This season, the Reds are aiming not one, not two, not three but all four trophies. English Premier League, UEFA Champions League, FA Cup and EFL League Cup.

Despite tons of games behind them, the season is still fresh, but Hendo and the boys are determined to reach unprecedented heights by winning a quadruple.

Impossible? Unknown word in the die-hard world of Jurgen Klopp. His side has reached the knockout stage of the UCL, where they'll face Inter Milan. The Scousers are currently holding a runners-up position in the EPL, with only three points adrift of the table-toppers Manchester City.

Moreover, the Reds have reached the EFL Cup semifinals following a climatic penalty-shootout win against Leicester and will need to eliminate Arsenal to reach the finals.

Finally, the good old FA Cup will see the Reds host Shrewsbury Town in round 3 of the oldest still-active European competition.

Four competitions and Henderson's army looking good in every one of them.

"Every competition we're in, we want to take seriously, and we want to go on to try and win," the England midfielder told TalkSport.

"In football, things change so quickly, and you need a little bit of luck along the way, especially with the times we're living in right now.

"A lot can happen. All we're focused on is the next game and the next challenge. If we do that and do it well, we should be in a good position come to the end of the season."

Henderson believes consistency through turbulent times will be crucial to success.

"It's been mad, hasn't it?" he added. "It's been a whirlwind for everyone, not only in football but the whole world. It's madness, really.

"But in terms of football, this season has been positive for us so far, in all competitions. I think consistency has been key, and we are really good, "concluded Hendo.
