Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson has detailed how the players plan to end their form slide.

After topping the table at Christmas, the Reds are now six points off league leaders Manchester United down in fourth.

But they have a chance to narrow the gap on their rivals in their game in hand against Burnley on Thursday, and Henderson has outlined how Liverpool plan to get back to winning ways.

“Individually our first look will always be at ourselves and collectively we will always look at what improvements are required as a team," Henderson wrote in his official programme notes.

“Another thing that we will not do is buy into the negativity that seems to be part-and-parcel of the reaction in certain quarters whenever any of the bigger clubs don't win a particular game or go through a testing period. It's not all doom and gloom."

Henderson also stated: "Being more ruthless in front of goal, making better decisions in the final third, giving our attackers better support, playing with confidence and belief at all times and remembering the qualities that have served us so well would all make a positive difference right now."
