Ahead of the first Merseyside derby at Hill Dickinson Stadium this weekend, Wirtz declared: "We have to play Champions League football next season. We have to take the defeat (to PSG) and move on.

The focus goes completely to the end of the season and the Premier League."His words were mirrored by Ryan Gravenberch, who struck a similarly downbeat tone alongside Slot when reflecting on Liverpool's misfortunes throughout the season.Gravenberch said: "We have to pick ourselves up as Sunday is waiting. We still have six matches in the league and we just want to play in the Champions League next year as well.

We have to give it our all."We have been a bit unlucky whereas last year we got a lot of things going our way. Ultimately you want to win a trophy but if you don't have that in a season like the one we're having now, you can only learn from it."Florian Wirtz failed to help Liverpool break through PSG (Image: Getty)Gravenberch drew only a fragment of comfort from the fact that Liverpool produced a much-improved performance in the second leg against PSG, albeit with precisely the same disappointing result.
