    Liverpool defender Daniel Agger insists his team-mates need to have more belief in front of goal, after the Reds were held to their sixth home draw of the season against Blackburn Rovers.

    Maxi Rodriguez’s second-half header cancelled out Charlie Adam’s own goal, as Steve Kean’s side earned a much-needed point, with reserve goalkeeper Mark Bunn in outstanding form at Anfield.

    The Reds have come under criticism this season for failing to convert a number of chances, and Agger believes they must also look to create more opportunities if their league form is to improve.

    “When you don’t take your chances, you don’t win football games,” he told the club’s official website.

    “Looking at the game against Blackburn, we still created chances so the confidence must still be there.

    “It’s a worry but what can you do? The only way to solve it is to create more chances.

    “I really think for 80 or 90 per cent of the time we are playing well. That’s the strange thing as normally when you play well you get a bit more luck.

    “But somehow we are missing that final touch. We need to find that. Normally when you try harder you get the luck and that’s what we must keep doing.”
