Liverpool veteran James Milner says they must not dwell on their Champions League humbling at Barcelona.

Barca won the first-leg of their semifinal 3-0 last night.

Liverpool must now quickly brush off the defeat as focus turns towards the penultimate Premier League match of the season at Newcastle United.

And Milner is convinced the make-up of the squad means there will be a response in the north east on Saturday night.

The vice-captain said: "We've obviously got to bounce back first for the weekend, pick ourselves up again after this disappointment. But I think we've all seen the heart in the dressing room before and the drive, the team spirit. We will be ready to go at the weekend.

"Hopefully we can get the result and get a bit of positive feeling going into the second leg."
