Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers insists that his players have learnt a lesson from the defeat to Aston Villa last weekend and will get it right.

Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers has revealed that he has full confidence is his players bouncing back from their disappointing 3-1 defeat to Aston Villa.

Rodgers's side seemed to have put a run of form together before the loss to Paul Lambert's side last weekend.

However, Rodgers has insisted that his players have learnt a lesson from the defeat and have shown a willingness to get things right once again.

"What has come to Liverpool is realism and where we are at and it's been great for the mentality of the players," said the former Swansea coach.

"Our learning from [the Villa defeat] was that no game is easy in this division.

"The reaction of the players has been first class - their willingness to put it right and get three points this weekend is very high and I've seen that in training."

Rodgers has led Liverpool to 12th place so far this season.
