“Do something really good”: Liverpool midfield star wants to put injury woes behind him

Liverpool ace Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain wants to put injury woes behind him

According to the Independent, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is ready to put his injury woes behind and kick on for Liverpool. The midfielder has endured a torrid time with injuries since joining the Reds but now wants to start performing at his best.

It was seen as a decent coup when Liverpool managed to get the former Arsenal man in 2017. Despite some early setbacks, he went on to establish himself as a regular over the next few seasons. However, a cruciate ligament injury would rule him out for almost the entire 2018-19 season.

He returned to play a solid part in the following season when Liverpool won the Premier League. But as luck would have it, a knee injury ruled him out for four months last season. On his return, he failed to produce his previous form and struggled a lot. Currently, he is back fit and even made an appearance this season.

The current season will be an important one for the Englishman and he agreed on the same. He wants to put all those injury problems behind and start performing again (h/t Independent

).

“I feel like it’s just a chance for me to kick on and put down a really good season of consistent performances and hopefully some good numbers as well in terms of goals, assists. But I guess that’s all to come. It doesn’t feel like a new start because it’s all been part of the journey, the story. But I feel like this season’s important for me to go and do something really good – hopefully on an individual level and then obviously for the team.”
