Liverpool captain Henderson on Brighton humbling: We need to stay together

Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson says Brighton deserved their 3-0 win on Saturday.

The Reds were beaten in the Premier League at the Amex Stadium after second-half goals from Solly March (two) and Danny Welbeck.

Henderson later said, "I thought Brighton were better than us in all departments, to be honest. It's a real low point for us today as a team. We need to stay together. There's an honest bunch of lads in there and it's a tough moment for us as a team, for sure, but we need to get together, we need to stay together and try to change things really quickly because the games are coming thick and fast and we need to try to learn from the day as best we can and show a reaction.

"I think there wasn't one thing, I think there were numerous things that weren't right at all and haven't been right probably for a little while now. Like I said, we need to be a lot better than that – everybody knows that. In the dressing room after the game, we all know we can be better individually, collectively, everything across the board. And I'll take responsibility, the lads will take responsibility to try to put it right."
