Adam Lallana is hoping to bring glory days back to Anfield after signing a three-year contract extension with Liverpool this week and has revealed he believes the club is making progress.

The 28-year-old England international has committed his future to Jurgen Klopp's side with his latest deal and is intent to lift honours with the Merseyside outfit, with the Reds having only won one League Cup since 2006.

Klopp's side did reach the League Cup and Europa League finals last season though, losing to Manchester City and Sevilla respectively, and Lallana believes the club has made steps towards ending a decade-long wait without a major trophy.

Speaking to the club's official website, Lallana said:

"Short term and long term -- it's about winning. Since I've been here we've come 'close' -- so we aren't a million miles away. In my first season we reached the semifinals of both domestic cups, and last season we reached two finals, including a European final."

"This season another semifinal and obviously we're right in there in the Premier League shake-up. So we've been 'close', but all of us want to actually win things and as many things as we can. The gaffer is a proven winner and we all trust him completely. So short and long term it's about winning trophies for Liverpool."

Liverpool's season this term is at risk of ending prematurely, with the Reds having exited both domestic cup competitions in January and slipping down the pecking order in the Premier League, with Klopp's side having a major battle ahead of them to clinch a top-four spot.

The Reds are particularly desperate to win the league title, something they have not done since 1990, but their form this season suggests they're still a long way off achieving that ambition.
