Jurgen Klopp: 'Liverpool must respond against Leicester City on Boxing Day'

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp calls for a response from his side following their 3-0 defeat to Watford at Vicarage Road.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has called on his side to show a reaction to this afternoon's 3-0 loss to Watford when they host Leicester City on Boxing Day.

The league leaders will arrive at Anfield to take on a Liverpool side who are winless in their last four games in all competitions since beating Southampton 6-1 in the League Cup.

Klopp admitted that Watford "deserved" their victory at Vicarage Road today, but wants to see a response from his side in their next match.

"It was a deserved win for Watford. Not because of our faults, but more our reaction to the our faults," he told BBC Sport.

When asked what has changed since the drubbing of Southampton, Klopp added: "I think a lot of things have happened. It is not too easy to tell all these things in a short time. It is football. We have to play better, to use our skills.

"Today we had a few players coming back after injuries, things like this happen. We have so many games and we can show our reaction in our next game against Leicester. We have to show we have learned from this game."

Liverpool are currently ninth in the Premier League table, five points off the top four and 14 adrift of Leicester.
