#5 Their desire is on full display
Given their season so far, all things considered, Liverpool players have shown a tremendous level of desire and hunger - especially following Philippe Coutinho's big-money switch to Barcelona last month.
Centre-back Dejan Lovren recently said that he and the rest of his team-mates are confident that they could win the Champions League this season. It's obvious that although no-one genuinely fancies them to progress after this current round-of-16 given the quality of opposition, they'll embrace the challenge that awaits and look to defeat tougher opposition when they arrive.
The Premier League title race was long over from the Reds' perspective with Manchester City currently running away with it, but they're clearly pulling out all the stops to try and win one piece of silverware this term after six seasons without.
