Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers has described the start to their season as a "disaster" and says Sunday's Merseyside derby with Everton is a must-win match.
"Everton have done well," he told reporters. "They are a point ahead of us. They've had a good start and we've had a disaster!
"Over the past 12 months we've had to manage a lot of change and a lot of disruption. "I respect the booing. There is frustration when you don't win the game. You have to take it on the chin as manager and players.
"Winning games is key to having support - it's not about me, it's about supporting the team. It's still very early in the season.
"There's lot of improvement still to come. If we go into the Everton game as favourites it shows we're a big club. We're happy to have that here. The level of our opponent's game always goes up.
"It's another opportunity to get a victory. We respect that it will be a tough game. It's one we want to win for our supporters."
