Mignolet: Chelsea Cup defeat will inspire Liverpool players

Liverpool goalkeeper Simon Mignolet says they'll use their Capital One Cup defeat to Chelsea to inspire them for the remainder of the season.

Mignolet admits the players are hurting from the 2-1 aggregate defeat.

He said: "When you go out, straight after the game everybody is disappointed because you want to win the competition and go to the final.

"That didn't happen, unfortunately. We've got a young group. Everybody wants to win competitions and trophies.

"We'll make sure that we go again in the competitions that we're still featuring in.

"The most important thing is that we have to go again on Saturday in the Premier League and then the FA Cup after that. We have to pick ourselves up and go again."
