Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is baffled by their reputation for struggling against lower sides, saying: "Where did other groups lose their points? Which way is better?"
The Reds have lost to Burnley, Swansea, Hull City and Crystal Palace this season and lie eighth in a league table of results against lower half sides.
In any case, they have beaten Watford, West Brom and Stoke as of late and will face Southampton at home later Today.
"Is there ever a moment when you are adequate in these games?" said Klopp when asked about their issues against sides outside the top six.

“We have won three, and lost one of them, and still we have the image that we lost all of them.
“No other team has this perception like we have: That we win against the top teams but we lose against the lower side.
“We have this image, and yet we have 69 points, and we are in the top four on the table.
“So where did the other clubs lose their points? Which way is better? “OK, Chelsea and Tottenham are first, but all the other teams have issues too.”
