Rafa Benitez hopes that the international break has not disrupted Liverpool's rhythm, and has stressed extra concentration from his side in their upcoming Premier League ties.
Liverpool host fellow North West club Wigan Athletic on Saturday after the majority of the squad spent two weeks away with their respective nations for the World Cup qualifiers.
Rafa Benitez believes that if the club are to maintain their unbeaten and respectable start to the new edition of the Premier League then the Reds will need to stay focussed on the field of play.
"We must concentrate in this game and that is it," Benitez told the club's official website. "It's important to think about the next three points and see what happens from there."
"These games after the international break are always very dangerous and everybody knows we have to win. We know that we are at the top of the table and in a good position, and we want to stay there. But we must concentrate and take it one game at a time because if you talk about the other games in the future then you will lose your concentration."
"We know that Wigan are playing well at the moment," he continued. "They are physically strong, but they are also playing good football, so as always in the Premier League, we know it will be a tough match."
"At the moment I believe we have enough quality to match Wigan, and we will think about the other games after that," Rafa concluded.
