Liverpool legend Ian Rush has urged the club's supporters to give under-fire boss Brendan Rodgers "a bit of time" to turn things around.
The Reds have endured a slow start to the season and find themselves down in eighth place at this early stage.
Rodgers saw his side pick up a much-needed win against Aston Villa last time out to end a four-game winless run in the league, and Rush wants to see Liverpool fans stand by their manager over the coming weeks.
"He needs a bit of time and to get everyone back fit," Rush told Sky Sports News. "Every manager is under pressure when they're not winning.
"When you manage a big club and are not winning games that's what happens. Just get on with it and let's see what we can do. Even though we'd like to have done better than where we are, we're five points from the top. Every manager [at a big club] is in the same position, not just Brendan."
Liverpool face Sion and Everton in their next two games ahead of the international break.
