Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson says that it is vital that Liverpool don’t let their poor form in January cloud their season.
Liverpool started the season in the kind of form that put them in the race for the title, but have since fallen away and now face a battle for Champions League qualification.
Jurgen Klopp’s side have won one of their last ten matches in all competitions, a run Henderson knows must end soon.
‘January wasn’t what any of us had hoped for and it certainly wasn’t what any of us expected, from ourselves as individuals or the team,’ Henderson wrote in the matchday programme.
‘Everyone at the club, from players through to all the staff, have worked extremely hard up until now and it’s vital we don’t let all that hard work go to waste because of a difficult January.
‘It’s on us to ensure it was a ‘bad month’ and not a bad season.
‘In football you can regain that positive feeling as quickly as it is possible to lose it.
‘Things can turn quickly and we have the opportunity and ability to do that.
‘As the manager has said repeatedly, the season is still very much alive and there is still a big prize to compete for.’
