Liverpool midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum issues his teammates a wake-up call after Watford ended their 44-game unbeaten run in the Premier League.

Liverpool midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum has issued a rallying call to his side after the Reds' shock 3-0 defeat at the hands of Watford on Saturday.

The 29-year-old played 61 minutes as Ismaila Sarr and Troy Deeney's goals condemned Liverpool to their first league defeat of the campaign, ending a run of 44 games unbeaten in the Premier League.

Jurgen Klopp's side still hold a vast 22-point lead over second-placed Manchester City, however Wijnaldum is expecting his teammates to get back to their best as the season draws to a close.

Speaking on Instagram, Wijnaldum said: "Tough losses should be an opportunity to improve. Time to regroup and give it our all in the very next opportunity we get."

The Netherlands international said in a separate story post: "When you don't win, make sure you learn."

Liverpool have a couple of days to regroup before their FA Cup fifth-round clash with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday.
