"But they've had to go back to basics and the pretty stuff goes out of the window until you start winning matches."
The 55-year-old admits he has been surprised to see Liverpool struggling this season after finishing the last campaign in such commanding form.
He added: "At the end of last season they were scoring freely and it was all looking so rosy for them.

"They have not been as pretty and fluid as they could be but have done the job and got the needed results."
