Brendan Rodgers has rubbished reports of a fiery exchange with members of his Liverpool squad at a ‘crisis meeting’ on Sunday.
It has been claimed in a leading newspaper that Rodgers called a meeting at the club's Melwood training base 24 hours after the defeat at Arsenal on Saturday and accused several stars of not giving their best for him.
That was said to have left senior players 'incensed', and some were claimed to have spoken up against Rodgers.
But that was refuted by the Reds chief on Monday morning, as he addressed the media ahead of Wednesday night's FA Cup quarter-final replay against Blackburn.
"We have lots of meetings here analysing performance and this one was no different," he said.
The defeat left Liverpool seven points behind the top four and with their Champions League hopes all but extinguished.
But Rodgers insisted his side would not give up, adding: "The attitude is to go right to the end. It is not a mindset, it is purely mathematical."
