Steven Gerrard believes success is around the corner for Liverpool if they manage to improve their record against the smaller teams.
Jurgen Klopp s men finished fourth in the Premier League table in 2016-17, a huge 17 points behind champions Chelsea.
They impressed against the top teams, though, as they remained unbeaten against their top-six rivals and Gerrard is confident they are on the right track.
We have got a fantastic manager at the helm. I think Liverpool are very, very close, Gerrard told BT Sport.
If you look at the statistics in the top six, they are the best team in terms of head-to-head.
