Adam Lallana is happy with the way things are going for Liverpool after he celebrated his 100th appearance for the club on Saturday.

Lallana has become one of Jurgen Klopp's most important players since he took over from Brendan Rodgers, with the England star having struggled for early consistency after his arrival from Southampton.

Klopp's style of play appears to suit the 28-year-old much better and he is excited to be a part of an attacking line-up that also features Philippe Coutinho, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino.

"Time flies when having fun and doing what you love," Lallana said after the 2-1 win over West Brom on Saturday.

"I'm just delighted to be playing in a team that's doing well. When I first joined it was a different manager and lots of different personnel, but football clubs move on.

"Looking at the squad we've got dynamic players, technical players, quick players, clever players...on another day it could have been three or four nil against West Brom.

"I thought we did well on Monday night and talking among the players we were disappointed not to win," he added.

"So it was important to back that up and, for me, that makes the point on Monday a very good one. Three points is massive for us."
