Liverpool may have suffered only one setback in their Premier League title bid this season, but former Reds boss Gerard Houllier has warned that “a big team doesn’t lose twice in a row”.

The Reds will next be in action on Tuesday night when taking in an FA Cup fifth-round clash with Chelsea, before then playing host to Bournemouth in top-flight action on Saturday.

Ex-Liverpool boss Houllier told talkSPORT: “On the day I thought Watford had more intensity in their game.

“But it’s not the end of the world. It happens.

“The next game is the most important one for Liverpool.

“A big team doesn’t lose twice in a row, that’s what I think.”

The Frenchman added: “I admire the spirit and the quality of the team, the way they play, the passion and the enthusiasm they have in their game, and I admire a lot my friend Jurgen Klopp.

“We keep in touch and I will go and see him to congratulate him on this title, because if there’s one thing I’m sure of it’s that Liverpool will win the title.

“And nobody will be more happy and more proud than I am.”
