Gini Wijnaldum says Liverpool are getting results without being at their best form.

The Reds have won three straight games, including Saturday's 2-1 away victory over Southampton.

"It is encouraging that we are getting results without being in top form," he said after the Southampton game.

"It is important, especially at this time of the season, that you collect as many points as possible because basically, you have to improve during the season and that is what are trying to do and what we want to do.

"But it is also important to collect as many as points until you are at your best. It is really important that we have won the game at Southampton.

"But I don't think you always see a team play well for 90 minutes. We just have to make sure we win games.

"Basically it doesn't matter how you win games. You just have to learn and use that experience that you have because we won't play a game 90 minutes counter pressing or everything goes well during a game.

"You have to use your quality and your experience and still try to win the game. That is more important than playing well over the whole 90 minutes because that is really impossible."
