Liverpool fullback Enrique: We'll take Brighton seriously

Liverpool fullback Jose Enrique has warned against complacency for their FA Cup tie with Brighton.

Brighton visit Anfield with a place in the FA Cup quarter-finals at stake.

"If we don't give 100 per cent we're in trouble," Enrique told liverpoolfc.tv.

"When you play against Manchester United and Chelsea you are motivated because they are special games, but you have to treat every game the same to win.

"When I played for Newcastle, playing against teams like Liverpool and Chelsea was a dream. Brighton will come believing they can beat us. These games are really hard because they don't give 100 per cent - they give 200.

"It's important, like the Copa del Rey in Spain, and it's a way into Europe. It's an important title and we want to go as far as we can."
