Form dipped once the title had been secured, with two of the three league defeats they suffered all season coming in their final seven matches, while their 100 percent home record also fell in a draw against Burnley.

"I think it's getting that balance right. We have to enjoy it because we know how hard it is to win trophies," the 34-year-old told liverpoolfc.com.

He warned his teammates against letting their standards drop.
