Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk declares himself excited with the progress of Jurgen Klopp's charges this season.

Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk has declared himself excited with the progress of Jurgen Klopp's charges this season.

The Reds earned their sixth win from as many matches on Tuesday evening with a 3-2 triumph over Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League, following on from five successive Premier League wins.

The Netherlands centre-half, who has kept three clean sheets so far this term, told The Guardian that it is important to back up such performances with silverware.

"This is a great time to be a Liverpool player," Van Dijk said. "Everyone is excited, everyone wants to be a part of it and though we know the season is very long, with four competitions to play in, we want to win everything. That is basically our mindset.

"You need to have ambitions, and with the size of this club and its history we are going to try to win everything. It is going to be hard, and there will be days when we have downs, but we have shown we can react to tough situations and at the moment I am not worried about anything.

"There is a lot of belief in this team, in the whole squad in fact. Everyone is there for each other."

Liverpool return to domestic action this weekend against Southampton.
