Brendan Rodgers: “It was a massive job, coming in here. The opening five or six months were difficult. But since January, I think in terms of points gained, we are in the top three in the country. Hopefully that is an indication that we’re doing well and that the club is in order. “I still think there’s a hell of a lot of improvement for us to make, but in the main we’re a tight unit, and we just need to keep moving forward. “There’s always a demand for the big clubs. We know that the money we’ve spent is nowhere near what some of the top four clubs have spent. “But we’re here to compete. Liverpool is one of the great institutions of the game. We’re never happy when we don’t win, but you have to have a sense of perspective as well. “To challenge, we need to rely on our coaching, and on bringing players in who are hungry. That’s key. “You need players that are hungry to succeed, players that are at an age where they’re not just happy to be a Liverpool player, they want to win as well. Rodgers added: “There will come a time when we start looking at when we can challenge, but we can’t get carried away. The club finished eighth the year before I came in, and we finished seventh last year. “The jump in terms of finances between there and the top end is massive. But we will continue to fight. “We have stabilised the mentality, there’s a strong culture at the club now, and I think the supporters can see the direction we’re going in. “Sixth would be an improvement, but also a disappointment, as there would still be five teams above us!” #prabin
