Wataru Endo happy to go with the flow at Liverpool

Wataru Endo says he's happy to go with the flow at Liverpool.

The Japan midfielder is ready to play when called upon, insisting he doesn't put pressure on himself in terms of minutes achieved.

"The manager always supports me and he is a great, great person because he always trusts me and the other players so that we can play much more fully," he says. "I don't think I've changed too much as a player. I had to understand how Liverpool play but I know that now and I can understand that side of things so I just do my best to try and help the team win every game.

"I feel like I can be an important player right now as it's a very tough situation for us to play two or three times as week but I don't feel a lot of pressure. I'm just not the kind of person who always puts too much pressure on myself. I just try to stay calm and focus on my job."

And of Liverpool's season, Endo says: "We have potential to win trophies. We have good young talent and we have amazingly experienced players, which is a good mix. Everyone always plays for the team and I think that's a very important thing in order to win titles and to achieve something. I can see that very clearly and so I can say that we have a lot of potential to win titles."
