"It's strange, to be honest. It hurts, really hurts. A defeat is a defeat but, you know, this was strange. Maybe it is a wake-up call for us," Goal.com quoted Lovren as saying."It feels like someone has hit us in the face - and we deserved it. We feel a bit ashamed because there's no excuse for that performance," he added.Liverpool, who were on a 44-match unbeaten run in the Premier League, witnessed a massive 3-0 defeat at the hands of Watford on Saturday.Despite the defeat, Liverpool top the Premier League table with 79 points, 22 points ahead of the second-placed Manchester City.Lovren also feels that Liverpool were lacking aggressiveness during the Watford clash."The manager looked at us when he came into the dressing room and I think he knows we are missing something. I think it was about the aggression when we lost the ball and not recovering it as quickly as possible," Lovren said. (ANI)
