Liverpool goalkeeper Simon Mignolet has expressed his belief that the team will bounce back from their defeat to Manchester United by beating Arsenal after the international break.
The Merseyside outfit's hopes of finishing in the top four this season suffered a blow as their rivals secured a 2-1 victory at Anfield on Sunday courtesy of a brace from Juan Mata.
The scoreline could have been worse had Mignolet not saved Wayne Rooney's late penalty, and the Belgian stopper is confident that the Reds will recover from the result.
"There's still a lot to play for and when we come back from international duty, we've got that big game against Arsenal," he told The Express.
"The game away to Manchester United at Old Trafford we used as a catalyst to put in a lot of good performances – so let's use this game as a catalyst again when we come back.
"With all the games still to play until the end of the season, we can still do really well. We'll build on the game and hopefully we can come back and get a run going again like we did after that Old Trafford game."
The defeat was Liverpool's first in the Premier League since losing away at United in December.
