Moreno: Liverpool lost at the Liberty stadium unacceptable

Moreno want Red to continue winning streak despite setback against Swansea

Moreno told the Liverpool official website: "Eighteen games without defeat, that's a great figure, the statistics don't lie.

"The good thing about it was that all players were involved - if someone was out for whatever reason, the person that replaced them did really, really well. 

"That group dynamic and feeling we had as a squad needs to continue, it's unacceptable really when you suffer a defeat like we did at Swansea. 

"You can't afford to drop points like that. We know it's the Premier League, we know every game is tough, but games you should be getting something out of you can't afford to drop three points. 

"Every team in the Premier League can make life difficult for you and we know that sometimes if you just drop your guard for one moment they can score, and then that makes it hard for you to get back in the game to get a goal to equalise or even win. 

"It's a case of starting the run again now."

Ahead of the weekend fixture with West Bromwich Albion which has the potential to throw up a similar test, with the Baggies having earned a 0-0 Premier League draw employing similar tactics at Anfield last month.

On combatting that approach, Moreno added: "The main thing is to be patient, keep calm, and keep possession of the ball.

"The more we have possession of the ball and move it side to side, it means that you're stretching them and you will create an opportunity by creating gaps. 

"You've just got to be confident that the gap, that split-second chance, will come and keep calm and patient until it does - and make sure when you do, you don't miss it."
