Liverpool attacker Dirk Kuyt says there can be no dwelling on their difficult situation.
Before yesterday's scratchy 2-1 win over Wigan Athletic, Kuyt admitted there was no point in worrying about their form.
He told liverpoolfc.tv: "You can't sit down and start thinking 'how bad are we?' or 'aren't things terrible at the moment?' - this is almost the same team that did really well last season; we've got some people coming back from injuries who are getting fitter.
"It is tough at the moment. It really is. When you are working as hard as we are every day to get the best results, you want to see it happen but that's life. We are all very lucky people to play for Liverpool and that's why we want to change things."
