Chelsea striker Abraham: Let's take anger out on Liverpool

Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham says there's no time to dwell on their Champions League defeat to Valencia.

Abraham - who has emerged as Chelsea's first-choice striker for the first time this season - played down the defeat and immediately looked ahead to Sunday's game against Liverpool.

"(Sunday) is a test of character. We can take our anger out against Liverpool," he said at Stamford Bridge.

"It's a massive game and both teams will be going to win. We'll look forward to putting (tonight's defeat) right.

"It's still early doors (in the Champions League). We're fuming we lost today. But there's still five games to go - we just have to win our next five.

"We're obviously disappointed. We didn't play our best football. Valencia came and stopped us playing the way we wanted so you have to give them credit.

"We're going to have a lot of ups and downs in a season. We've got to move on and not dwell on it."
