John McMahon admitted he was disappointed with the performance of his Reserve team after they were held to a 1-1 draw by Wigan Athletic at Prenton Park on Thursday night.
Martin Kelly had fired Liverpool into the lead but the Latics responded a minute later when Jordan Mustoe beat Martin Hansen direct from a free-kick.
It means the unbeaten run is now extended to 15 games. McMahon's side are now six points behind leaders Manchester United and have three games in hand.
"We are pleased to continue our unbeaten run but I have to be disappointed with our performance," McMahon told Liverpoolfc.tv.
"We played at a slow pace with no intensity and we were lacklustre. We have praised the lads for how well they have done this season but tonight wasn't good from us.
"We got ourselves in front but we were disappointed to give the free-kick away and then concede straight away."
Lauri Dalla Valle headed against the bar and almost won it in stoppage time but was denied by a superb save.
"Lauri was unlucky," he added. "His first touch is excellent and it was a good save."
