Ryan Giggs admits Manchester United must bounce back against Blackburn Rovers today. Giggs is still hurting after the defeat by Liverpool, which left United trailing Chelsea at the top of the table.
But a Carling Cup victory against Barnsley in midweek lifted some of the gloom over Old Trafford.
Giggs said: "We just didn't turn up. That is one game you don't want to lose, against Liverpool at Anfield.
"We could still have won the match, because we had some chances. But whoever scores the first goal, it is very difficult to claw that lead back. It was disappointing we did not perform as well as we can.
"But we had a good win against Barnsley. Now we want to get back on track in the league."
Even though Blackburn were thrashed 5-0 by Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, Giggs is not expecting an easy ride.
He added: "With Sam Allardyce as manager, you know they are going to be tough and will be organised. You know you have got to perform.
"You look to win all your home games, because you know any away game in the league is difficult. You don't want to be dropping silly points at home."
