Jordan Henderson: Newcastle United loss was "very disappointing"

Liverpool midfielder Jordan Henderson admits that their defeat to Newcastle United in the Premier League was "very disappointing".

Jordan Henderson has described Liverpool's defeat to Newcastle United in the Premier League on Saturday as "very disappointing".

Brendan Rodgers's side slipped to their fourth loss of the campaign as Ayoze Perez scored the only goal of the game at St James' Park.

Henderson told the club's official website: "It was very disappointing. We came here for confidence and to get a result and we didn't manage to do that, so we're very disappointed.

"Throughout the game I thought we dominated the ball but we didn't really get in behind them or create many chances. We had one or two through Philippe Coutinho and Martin Skrtel from the corner. But overall we're disappointed not to get something out of the game.

"I felt as though we started the game well and we quietened the crowd down, kept the ball. But the ball wasn't the problem, we were dominating the game through possession, but it was just getting that final third and creating an opening. We struggled with that, so we'll have to improve on that and kick on for the next game."

The result leaves Liverpool seventh in the table, 12 points behind leaders Chelsea.
