James Milner isn't worried that Liverpool lack a clinical nature after failing to convert their chances against Chelsea in their Premier League clash
Liverpool were trailing for the majority of the match, wasting multiple opportunities to force their way back into the top of the table clash
On a different day, Milner believes more of those chances would have gone in and the fact their creating so many opportunities is an encouraging sign
'The amount of chances we are creating is pleasing and I think you would be more worried if you weren't creating the chances
I'm sure they will start going in a bit easier soon' Milner told Liverpoolfc.com
Liverpool look destined to lose their undefeated streak in the league until Daniel Sturridge came off the bench late on the rescue a point with a wonderstrike against his former club
Milner says the fact that they were able to save the game and have the likes of Sturrdge on the bench speaks volumes of the squad's quality: 'Sometimes you have to find a way to get a point or a win in whatever way you can and it was a positive point
There are still areas we can improve on but they are a top team, they have shown that at the start of the season and they showed that the other night
'We knew it would be tough but I think it's a good point at the end, and hopefully we can use this momentum from late in the game, scoring like that, to take into the last two games before the international break
'It took a moment of quality. We created other good chances and didn't take them but that's the beauty of having as much quality throughout the squad as we do and players like Studge waiting and chomping at the bit to come on
That's what he does – he scores goals. 'No-one has ever doubted his ability, so much ability; he scores goals, look at his goal record for the club, and he's a top-quality player, so we are lucky to have that all throughout the squad and hopefully he can keep contributing like that
' The fixtures don't get any easier for Liverpool as they next take on Manchester City in the league but not before they travel to Napoli in the Champions League
It's a challenge Milner is relishing: 'These are the sort of games you want to play in: good atmospheres, good European games
It's another tough game and that's what we seem to have in every single game at this moment in time but we can deal with that, we just have to keep churning it out and keep trying to improve
