Liverpool midfielder James Milner says that the team need to improve their home form after beating Chelsea and Manchester City on the road.

Liverpool vice-captain James Milner has claimed that he and his teammates need to improve their home form after earning some impressive victories on the road.

The Reds have already beaten Chelsea away under new manager Jurgen Klopp, and they sealed a 4-1 victory over Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium last Saturday.

At Anfield, though, the team have lost and drawn their last two Premier League games.

"We've been through a lot already this season - we've had good results, poor results and a manager change," Milner told the club's official website. "There's been pressure at times and that's what you expect playing for a massive club like Liverpool.

"But we've shown we can beat anyone in beating Chelsea and Man City away from home, and we've had a number of other good results away from home too.

"It's probably only the home form that's let us down, but in a way that's a pleasing thing because we know what we need to try and change. If we can improve our home form, we won't be too far away and we'll be in the area of the table that we want to be."

The Merseyside outfit are currently ninth in the league table, six points adrift of fourth-placed Arsenal.
