Liverpool stars arrive at Anfield before Champions League clash with Maribor as Jordan Henderson insists their previous 7-0 win 'counts for nothing'

The Liverpool stars continued their routine of arriving at Anfield early on Wednesday ahead of their Champions League Group E encounter with Maribor.

Jurgen Klopp's men often get to the stadium with plenty of time until kick off before heading to the team hotel to undergo their final match preparations.

And Wednesday was no different, with Klopp and his players all donning the club's training gear as they made their way towards the Reds' team bus.

Among those present was James Milner, who enjoyed an impressive performance in midfield when Liverpool overcame Maribor 7-0 last month. 

He will be looking to produce a similar showing at Anfield, and the former England international seemed ready for business while clutching his wash bag and phone. 

Joel Matip and Emre Can, also dressed in the Reds tracksuit, were two other stars in attendance ahead of the European encounter.

And while his players appeared in relaxed mood, Klopp was seen checking his watch for the time as he prepared to join his players on the bus.

The German coach will be hoping for a similar performance to the one he witnessed in Slovenia, where his team made history with a 7-0 victory.

Despite the scoreline, Jordan Henderson has insisted it counts for nothing when the teams meet at Anfield. 

He said: 'We, the team, have come in for criticism this season and it's come because we haven't been consistent enough with our results.

'Anyone who's watched us since we started at Watford knows we've been playing well enough and the performance level has been, by and large, pretty consistent. But the results haven't and at Liverpool you need the results.

'We have a chance now, with two more games before the international break, to show we can be as consistent in winning as we are in playing well.

'That starts tonight against Maribor and I can assure everyone inside Anfield we know just how tough this is going to be. 

'I didn't play in Slovenia and because of the nature of the scoreline from that game there is a danger that the external expectation will be that we only have to turn up to win.

'That expectation doesn't exist in our dressing room, I can tell you. We got the result we did in Maribor because of the attitude we showed during the 90 minutes. That scoreline counts for nothing when we kick off tonight. If anything, it makes Maribor even more dangerous and a much bigger threat.

'If we don't show the same attitude, we won't get the result. The Champions League is a ruthless competition and if, as a team, we don't play at our maximum we will be punished.'
