"Games likes these, the bare minimum is fight," Virgil van Dijk said after Liverpool's 2-0 defeat to Everton.
"We were lacking that at so many moments in games. If you play like we did, obviously even if we create two or three clearcut chances again, you don’t deserve to win the league.
"It’s crunch time and we’ve not been good enough in the way we finished the chances off, in the way we defended together and also the fight. I think we have to show much more.
"But we have to look in the mirror and each and every one of us has to think like: 'Listen, you can’t accept this. You can’t accept the way we let our season end.'
"It’s a mix of everything. You can’t put a finger on it. It’s confidence, inexperience, challenges, maybe afraid to make mistakes in this part of the season.
"We have to stick together. We can’t have groups blaming each other because that’s not how it works. It’s a team thing and I don’t blame anyone. I blame us as a team, as a group. Everyone has to look in the mirror."
Liverpool lost three out of the last five games in all competitions. They've also failed to win in three out of the last four Premier League games which puts them further from Man City and Arsenal in the title race.
The Reds have to get themselves together fast if they want to end Jurgen Klopp's last season at the club on a positive note.
