Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson says they cannot get carried away with their 7-0 win against Manchester United.

Henderson says they must stay hungry in the pursuit of Champions League football.

He stated, We have to use (the 7-0) in the right way. We can't can't get too confident or overconfident, for sure. It was a big day (in Liverpool's history) and one that we've got to enjoy but, at the same time, it's only another three points and we've still got plenty of football to go until the end of the season.

We have to finish strongly. Hopefully, this gives everyone the confidence to keep building, keep working and keep going right until the end of the season and see where we can get to."

Earlier this season, a week after the 9-0 triumph over Bournemouth, the Reds were condemned to a poor goalless draw at Everton then an absolute humiliation in Italy. The 4-1 defeat by Napoli was considered their worst of the season - and perhaps the entire Jurgen Klopp era.

"There are different tests along the way from now until the end of the season that will come and you need to stay positive, stay ready and stay hungry like we were (against United), and that will give us a good chance to finish the season well," Henderson added.

The intensity and energy levels for the entire game were high, and something that we have been missing for a while this season. (When) we perform to the levels we are capable of, you get your rewards with the goals."
