“I think we just need to take each game as it comes and try to be horrible to play against,” he told TNT Sports. “(We need to) try to compete every time we set foot on the pitch. That’s all you can ever do, I think, and that is what the lads have done fantastically well.

“We have some fantastic players and we have defended well over the last few games as well. We need to keep building our momentum, building our performances, and stay as consistent as possible.

“In the Premier League, no game is easy. Its always tough games and things can change very quickly. We need to keep looking to improve.

“There’s a lot we did well tonight, but there’s still things we can improve on, and keep building and take each game as it comes and don’t look too far ahead.”

On Liverpool, the midfielder continued: "I was (there)  12 years, dedicated a lot of my life. My kids were born there, so it holds a special place in my heart. 

“I still want Liverpool to do well, of course not when we’re playing them, but overall, and that will never change.

“The fans have always been amazing. It was special just to see a few of them. I know they probably left a bit early because of the result, but it was nice to see them again.”
