Liverpool manager Roy Hodgson believes it is too early to gauge how his side are performing in the Premier League this season.
Having recorded a win, a defeat and a draw so far this term, the Reds travel to Birmingham on Sunday looking to kick-start their campaign.
New boss Hodgson took the reins at Anfield this summer following the departure of former coach Rafa Benitez, and has since made a few changes to his squad.
Despite being five points behind current leaders Chelsea, Hodgson is unconcerned by the current standings and is waiting until the 10th game of the campaign before making a judgement.
"I know how many points we have but I don't know what that means in terms of the table," he said.
No interest
"I think tables are of no interest until at least 10 games have been played.
"Then you start looking to see how big a gap there is between yourself and the top teams or between yourself and the bottom teams. I don't think you worry about that after three games.
"The programme plays a big part in that and we've already played Arsenal at home and Manchester City away.
"Injuries play a part as well when teams don't have their best team available early on but will do soon.
"After 10 games I will start worrying about the table but until then I'll worry more about performances and results."
Liverpool have an action packed few weeks coming up as they face a Europa League clash with Steaua Bucharest, a Carling Cup tie against Northampton and a league game with rivals Manchester United.
actually.. its neither. but just for your amusement, its semi-sarcastic.
if u think its stupid then i suggest you look at last season.
if theres anything ur gonna shoot me with is my passion (or lack of it if u will).
PS: its more of a suggestive statement with sarcastic intent.
A suggestion for us to sink? Apparently, only your posts can be sarcastic (or amusing if you'd like to put it that way), while posts from others are just plain stupid. So much for a passionate and never-fails-in-picking-sarcasm person.
