That winless run was extended to eight games on Saturday as Liverpool fought off a 3-3 draw with Derby County.

Now seventh in the table, they are 12 points behind Sunderland. But the Black Cats fell to second place, with Manchester City leading and more than twice as many points as Liverpool.

“Potentially (it’s harder for them), yes,” Bridge-Wilkinson admitted speaking exclusively to ECHO after the final whistle. “But we don’t change overnight. “Whether we win, lose or draw, we come in and try to work more on our game, try to help the individuals improve and try to help the team improve. Whether we win, lose or draw, it’s all the same.

“I can imagine it’s hard for them. It’s never fun to keep losing or not winning games. But we believe in the group and within the staff.

“We know what we are capable of. We show people what we are capable of, we just have to put it in place and stick to a specific day.”
