London: Jurgen Klopp insists Liverpool will use the frustration of their dramatic draw with Manchester United to avoid FA Cup humiliation at fourth tier Plymouth.

Klopp's side were denied a memorable victory over bitter rivals United when Zlatan Ibrahimovic headed a late equaliser at Old Trafford on Sunday.
James Milner's first half penalty had put the Reds in front, but they couldn't add a killer second goal and paid the price when Ibrahimovic struck in the 84th minute to leave Liverpool seven points behind Premier League leaders Chelsea. But the Reds boss is confident his squad will recover from their blip sooner rather than later. "A lot of people thought playing United was a decisive game for the rest of the season.
That's rubbish," said Klopp. "We went there to win the game which is why we are not 100 percent satisfied. It was a wild game. I hoped we would have a bit of luck, unfortunately not but it's all good. I can enjoy the result today and the performance tomorrow," Klopp added.
