Liverpool fullback Tsimikas: We're frustrated with the games we've lost

Liverpool fullback Kostas Tsimikas says the spirit within the squad is as strong as ever as they prepare for the season resuming.

Jürgen Klopp's men are currently undertaking a warm-weather training camp in the United Arab Emirates, which will see them play their final fixture of the Dubai Super Cup against AC Milan on Friday.

Tsimikas has been pleased by the work he has seen from his teammates amid the ongoing World Cup hiatus, and is optimistic about improving upon the season's results to date.

"It's a frustration because we lost many games we didn't want to lose," Tsimikas told Liverpoolfc.com. "That's why everybody – from the boys who train here – give absolutely everything.

"We want to be on the highest level we can be. So, of course, [it] was [a] frustrating start, but it's not the point.

"The point is if we want to achieve our goals, we have to be 100 per cent there and to win football games."

The full-back added: "To be honest, we had a very tough programme. Even when we had the break, every player here came [back] very good physically.

"We have to work – we do every day. Every single day we work very hard. I can see from the boys, everybody is hungry for the rest of the season. I'm really looking forward to the next games."
