Chelsea striker Christopher Nkunku says there's a lot to learn after their thrashing at Liverpool.

Nkunku scored on a night when Chelsea were outclassed.

"We feel sad because we lost a game which we wanted to win," Nkunku reflected to chelseafc.com.

"To concede three goals and to come back is very difficult. I think we need to work more and come back stronger for our game on Sunday.

"I think we need to work on everything. We need to put more in every moment of the game. We need to push hard with our intensity.

"I think even in our character, we need to do more on the pitch to win the game. We know the stadium is difficult to play in, but we can do a lot more."

He also said: "I came back from a big injury on my knee and after I had a little injury to my hip, but that's normal after a long injury.

"I just want to stay fit, to continue to perform and help the team. Of course, it is positive to score for a striker, but I think this is not the main point tonight.

"I need to take it step-by-step because I don't want another injury. I need to take care of myself also, but for sure I want to help the team and play as many games as I can."
