I knew Liverpool would be champions –Moses

Moses

Victor Moses knew he had joined a title winning team after the very first training session with Liverpool after his loan switch from Chelsea.

The Nigerian, who joined the club in the summer, insists he said all along the Anfield side would win their first league title in 24 years.

Moses has played 20 times for Liverpool this term, scoring two goals, but his future at the club is unknown.

Moses told the Liverpool Echo, “When I first came here, I knew that Liverpool were going to win the league… honest! Even when I spoke to the press, I said that we would win it.

“Just from seeing the way everyone trained, that first training session, and the games that I played in early on, I could see the quality that we have here. There is huge talent at this club, and I knew that this team could go far.

“We are in a position now where if we win the rest of our games, we will win the Premier League. That’s not a bad position to be in, is it?”

Moses is on loan with the Reds from Chelsea. The performance at Anfield is far below the expectations from the Nigeria attacker given the celebrations that greeted his arrival from Stamford Bridge. Raheem Sterling has since overtaken him in pecking order after his initial lead.

But in spite of his limited show for the Reds, Moses is expected to make the Super Eagles squad to the 2014 World Cup kicking off in Brazil from June 12.
