Liverpool midfielder Lucas believes new arrivals Glen Johnson and Alberto Aquilani can push the side towards another title challenge.
"Glen has adapted already in the Premier League and he will be a key player for us," The Brazilian told BBC Radio Merseyside.
"We are looking forward to seeing Aquilani, but we know he's injured now but hopefully back soon.
"Last year we went close and hopefully this season we will win the title."
The 22-year-old has been in impressive form during pre-season, and is now hoping to play a big part in the months to come.
"I'm looking to play more games this season," he added.
"I feel better, I'm doing extra work to get extra weight and it's helped me a lot.
"I have to be strong and focussed to show my teammates and Rafa I can be in the team. Now I can start to grow and play with intensity every time."
