The press have been claiming that Liverpool are a one man team recently but Harry Kewell believes that Tuesday's result shows that isn't the case.
"People have their opinions on Liverpool and the focus is always on Stevie because he's a great player, but whether he's playing or not the team has to go out to do a job," he said.
"It's not just Stevie, but lots of other world class players who were missing last night.
"There's Djibril Cisse, Fernando Morientes, Xabi Alonso and Chris Kirkland, too. This performance shows we have some depth in our squad. The gaffer has brought in some great players of his own and we all know what we can do as a team.
"Sometimes you go out there and everything comes off and sometimes not, but I can promise we always give 100 per cent. We are always together as a team.
"People may knock us but we all stick together. Last night we put in a good performance against a great team.
"It was disappointing to lose a goal at the end but if you would have asked us if we'd like a 3-1 win before the game, we would have taken it."
