Liverpool have only won two games from seven matches, Wednesday’s 4-1 loss to Napoli in their Champions League highlighted the struggle the Reds have had to face.
Manager Jurgen Klopp however, believes he would sort things out, saying Liverpool unlike Chelsea are patient.
When asked if he is worried about his own future Klopp said: “Not really, but who knows?
“The difference is they [Chelsea’s owners] are different kinds of owners. Our owners are rather calm and expect me to sort the situation and are not thinking that someone else should sort it.”
The Reds got their Champions League group stage campaign off to the worst possible start in southern Italy, with last season’s runners-up finding themselves 3-0 down at half-time due to Piotr Zielinski’s penalty and goals from Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa and Giovanni Simeone.
“It was really tough to take but I would say not that difficult to explain,” Klopp told BT Sport. “Firstly, Napoli played really well and we didn’t. That is the first explanation for the defeat. The two penalties we concede, they were both a little unlucky.
“The next two goals we concede are handed to them on a plate. That is not cool and we should have defended better in the first place and, of course, in the last moment as well.
“We were not compact defensively or offensively. With Alisson in goal you have to be really bad to concede three goals [in the first half]. You could see it on the pitch. We were not working as a team. That is why we lose games.”
Liverpool’s next match sees them take on Wolves in the Premier League on Saturday and Klopp believes Bruno Lage’s side should be “laughing” at the prospect of playing his side.
“We need to reinvent ourselves,” the Reds boss added. “There are a lot of things lacking, not in all games but the fun thing is we have to do it in the middle of the Premier League season and a Champions League campaign. We need a set-up to be better in pretty much everything.”
