New Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish has called for unity at the club after he replaced Roy Hodgson.
Dalglish is back in the Reds hotseat almost 20 years after leaving the job.
"All I would say is I'm going to do the best I possibly can to try to help the club, but everybody has to pull in the same direction," said the Liverpool legend on lfc.tv.
"There's no point not being a unified unit. If we pull in different directions we won't get anywhere.
"We won't always be successful, and to be perfectly realistic, I think we have to say 'Let's just start walking before we run'.
"Let's not go crazy here and think the season changes and we're going to sweep everything aside now and go undefeated from now to the end of the season.
"We're perfectly capable of doing it but let's be realistic, let's just go out there and try our best and take things one game at a time.
"I'm really looking forward to it and it'll be a real pleasure for me to be in that dressing room again and on the bench."
Despite criticism that bringing in Dalglish, even for a temporary period, is a backward step, the Scot insists he can cut it even though he has been out of management for 10 years.
"I think people know what they're getting and what's in the package with Kenny Dalglish, they know they'll get honesty and a great deal of commitment," he told liverpoolfc.tv.
"I've been a very lucky boy to be asked to do this. I'm fortunate to come back, even if it's only to the end of the season it makes no difference to me.
"I said at the start of the season that if they wanted me to help in any way, shape or form then I would do. My situation never changed.
"I was there to be of help to the football club and if John Henry (principal owner) and Tom Werner (chairman) and Ian Ayre (commercial director) and Damien Comolli (director of football strategy) were happy to offer me the position then there was no way I could be disrespectful and not take it.
"This place is very special and all we can do is try our best to move the club forward a bit and try to win some more games.
"I'll take my chances and hopefully we'll get more positive results than negative ones.
"It's not going to turn overnight. We've got to get it right between now and the end of the season.
"There might be some disappointments but the biggest disappointment for me is if everyone who is involved in this football club doesn't give everything they have to give.
"If we do that then we have a good chance of finishing the season well."
