Kolo Toure wants to bounce back quickly

Liverpool defender Kolo Toure calls for a quick response to Saturday's 1-0 defeat to Southampton.

Liverpool defender Kolo Toure is looking to his teammates for a positive reaction to their defeat to Southampton on Saturday.

The Reds suffered just their second Anfield defeat of 2013 when the traveling Saints won 1-0, and Toure wants the whole team to bounce back immediately.

"The most important thing is: how are we going to react to a setback like that? I'm sure the team is really strong mentally," Toure told the club's official website.

"We didn't have a chance to score the goal to make a draw. But the next game [against Manchester United] is going to be very important for us and we will do everything we can to win the game.

"It's a marathon - the season is very long and we're going to have ups and downs. We all know that as a team we didn't perform; it wasn't one or two, it was the squad. We didn't work as a team like we are used to."

Toure signed on a free transfer from Manchester City in the summer.
