PAUL KONCHESKY admits his performances have not been good enough for Liverpool.
The left-back has accepted full responsibility for his side's 2-1 defeat at the hands of Tottenham at White Hart Lane yesterday.Konchesky was given a tough time by Aaron Lennon and was caught out of position and found lacking for pace as the winger raced through to score the winner in added time.
Despite an encouraging performance at White Hart Lane — where the Reds dominated the first half and should have led by more at the interval — Konchesky was the one player who came in for criticism.
And the 29-year-old conceded: "I've got to up my game.
"Where I've played before has not been as high a standard as Liverpool, but this is a good pressure.
"The fans want you to be in the top four because that's where Liverpool belong.
"Straight after Aaron's winner I knew that I'd have to hold my hands up, but we also had chances to win the game.
"That's part of football and we've got to try to take the positives out of the game.
"I was gutted, being the last minute as well it didn't give us any time to get back into the game.
"But that's life, we've got to put it behind us, and I've got to put it behind myself for the next game."
