Former Liverpool defender Daniel Agger has high hopes for the Reds this season and believes they are on the right path under manager Jurgen Klopp.
The Danish centre-back, who spent eight years at Liverpool, was at Anfield on Monday night to watch the 0-0 draw with Manchester United.
Liverpool currently sit fourth in the Premier League table after eight games, having only been beaten once so far this campaign and enjoying eye-catching victories over Arsenal, Chelsea and champions Leicester City.
"It's going well so far," Agger told the Liverpool's official website. "To be honest, I have some expectations this year, especially after last year.
"Jurgen is looking good for the club, I think he's doing well. He has some great ideas and the way he talks with the media, everything, I like."
The 31-year-old was part of Brendan Rodgers' Liverpool side that scored 101 Premier League goals, which saw them agonisingly miss out on the title to Manchester City in 2013-14.
The Reds have already scored 26 goals in all competitions throughout this campaign and Agger says having free-scoring forwards in a team provides comfort for defenders.
"It means you can let a few in and still win the game -- that's some confidence to have in a team," Agger said.
"As a defender, it's not always the best because when you attack a lot, you obviously let more goals in. But it's easier when you can score two, three, four or five sometimes. It's easier to let one or two in."
The ex-Denmark international retired from football back in June and recently opened up about his overuse of pain-killing medication throughout his career.
"It's difficult and it'll always be difficult," he added. "Even though I've just finished my career, I miss it, I really, really miss it.
"But at the same time I know it's the right decision. I can come here with a good feeling, a smile on my lips, and enjoy it -- that's the most important thing for me. I can enjoy it but miss it at the same time."
