Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard has urged the supporters to keep the faith as the Reds look to get their season back on track against Sunderland this weekend.
After taking just five points from the first five Premier League games of the season, Liverpool's season took a turn for the worse on Wednesday night when they were dumped out of the Carling Cup by League Two Northampton Town.
The results have seen new Reds boss Roy Hodgson come under increasing pressure early into his reign.
And Gerrard, who did not feature against the Cobblers, has issued a timely rallying call to some of the more experienced players ahead of Saturday's visit of Sunderland.
Trust
"Football isn't just about highs,"said the 30-year-old.
"Throughout my career I have experienced both highs and lows and probably learnt more from the lows because you look at yourself first, look at what went wrong and try to learn from your mistakes.
"The players are allowed to be down today but it's up to players like myself to pick them back up.
"Playing for this club there are big games every two or three days and we need to get everyone's head focused on Sunderland now.
"What I would ask all the supporters is to trust the players and what the players are saying.
"I've been reading and listening to what they've been saying and they've all said we'll get it right in the end - and we will."
