Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers: 'Players need to stay together'

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers urges his players to 'stay together' as they try to turn their poor season around.

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers believes that togetherness is vital for the players if they are to successfully turn around their season.

The Reds came within two points of winning the Premier League title last season, but they now languish in 11th place after securing just two victories from their last eight games.

After failing to make the knockout rounds of the Champions League, the Merseyside outfit suffered a 3-0 defeat at the hands of Manchester United on Sunday.

"If you look at our record over the last 10 or 11 games, we haven't scored in a lot of them," Rodgers told the club's official website. "We've got to keep working, stay focused and make sure the group stays together, then take the confidence from our creativity into the game."

Tomorrow night, Liverpool will face Bournemouth away in the quarter-finals of the Capital One Cup.
