Liverpool no.2 Clarke: We will bounce back against Tottenham

Liverpool first team coach Steve Clarke is expecting a positive response from the players this weekend.

The Reds were beaten 1-0 at Stoke City on Saturday in controversial circumstances and Clarke feels that the playing group will take it on themselves to exact revenge at Tottenham on Sunday.

"Everyone was disappointed in the dressing room after the game because we lost the game. We as the coaching staff have to try to put forward the positives," he told the club's official website.

"We played well and we created enough chances to have won two games so we have to give the players the positives and understand their disappointment at the same time.

"It's a long season and you know you will get setbacks but it's how you react to those setbacks. The mood in training has been fine and the players know they performed to an acceptable standard obviously without the required result against Stoke.

"We have to make sure when we go to Tottenham on Sunday that we put in an acceptable performance, only this time make sure we get the required result."
