BT cameras pick up James Milner's pre-match message - and Liverpool fans love it

Liverpool are looking to return to their best form against Bournemouth in the Premier League on Saturday and James Milner has made the intentions of Jurgen Klopp's side clear.

The Reds have suffered a dip in their last four matches, losing the first leg of their Champions League showdown with Atletico Madrid, being knocked out of the FA Cup by Chelsea and losing their unbeaten run in the Premier League against Watford.

While the defeat to the Hornets hasn't changed the picture in the title race as the Reds are so far ahead, Liverpool are keen to lay down a marker ahead of their second-leg against Atletico.

Against a relegation-threatened Bournemouth side, Liverpool are the favourites to pick up all three points but they know nothing can be taken for granted in this match.

As such, Liverpool are keen to ensure there are no further blips in form and their approach to the match was highlighted by James Milner ahead of the match.

"Those reactions straight away. As soon as we lose it, bodies around it and have them plat out of that area," he said to his teammates in comments picked up by BT Sport.

"Everything we do, highest tempo today. It doesn't matter the score, we score, they score, we lift it again, everything across the trigger for us."
