Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson insists the Reds must improve their standards ahead of Saturday's clash with Chelsea - but hailed his team-mates for the way in which they responded to their dismal showing at Brighton last weekend.
Three second half goals at the Amex Stadium saw Roberto De Zerbi's side inflict a sixth Premier League defeat of the season on Liverpool, leaving them ninth in the table. It meant that Jurgen Klopp's side started the new year without a victory in their opening three matches - their worst run since 1993 when they were managed by Graeme Souness.
However, victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers in the FA Cup third-round replay on Tuesday was a step in the right direction for Klopp's men as they performed with a restored sense of fight, which has been absent in so many of their performances this campaign.
