Georginio Wijnaldum is bidding to put Liverpool’s midweek disappointment behind him and focus on this weekend’s tie with Manchester City.

Liverpool lost to Napoli in midweek in the Champions League after conceding a stoppage time winner away to the Serie A side.

Wijnaldum believes the loss can act as a wake up call and Jurgen Klopp’s side have been given lots to work on.

It wasn’t just a late goal that was disappointing about Liverpool’s midweek match.

The whole performance was lethargic and lacked the energy fans have become accustomed to seeing from the side.

Liverpool have a huge fixture against Manchester City this weekend, a game which they won 4-3 last season in a thriller.

The two sides currently sit joint top of the Premier League table and both will be desperate to sign off for the international break with a win.
