Dirk Kuyt and Jay Spearing spoke up for the team, and claimed they weren't going down without a fight on the final match-day. Liverpool's No.18 admitted it was a disappointing performance against Spurs but claimed it was anything but their last shout for a Europa League spot.
"Obviously the result was very disappointing," said Kuyt.
"We all hoped for a good result and a win, but it didn't happen.
"There's still one game to go and hopefully they (Spurs) will draw next week and we win and get into Europe next season.
"It's disappointing. We gave everything but it wasn't as good as the last couple of weeks."
"For me it doesn't matter, as long as I can help the team when I'm playing. That's the most important thing.
"I always want to be vital in games by scoring goals or giving assists, and the most important thing is the result."
Jay Spearing seemed to be on the same wavelength as his teammate and manager, stating that Liverpool's loss was due to a slow start:
"Right from the off we didn't start quick enough and they got on top of us and caused us a lot of problems,
"In the second half we seemed to step it up a little bit but unfortunately it was too late."
"There's not much I can say about it now but I don't think it was a penalty. The referee gave it and we have to get on with it.
"We've got to go to Aston Villa now and make sure we get the three points and then see what happens in the Birmingham game.
"We still believe we can do it and we will give it everything we have got in the last game."
