The Reds, who entered the season as reigning champions, have surrendered their crown but appear likely to secure UEFA Champions League qualification, which was uncertain just weeks ago. They will conclude the season facing three teams in the top nine - beginning with struggling Chelsea.

Before their defeat at Manchester United last week, Liverpool had strung together three consecutive victories, and doing so again against the Blues, Aston Villa, and Brentford would see them close the year with six wins from seven matches, as per The Mirror .

He said: "This season has been gone in a way that even if we have three wins and positive performances, I don't think anyone will be positive about the season.

It's important we get at least one win over the line which might be enough. "We are trying to do it in the best possible way, performance-wise. The positive thing is a few of the players who can be really important for us are either coming back at the weekend or after the weekend.

That will help us. Three wins won't silence the criticism. Therefore we need to have a much longer run of result and performances.
