Although Liverpool has won three straight games, Jurgen Klopp is expecting more in the final weeks of the campaign.
As they aim for a fourth straight Premier League victory against Tottenham on Sunday, Jurgen Klopp believes Liverpool will "take what we get" at the end of the year.
The Reds are currently in seventh place after a 2-1 victory at West Ham on Tuesday, extending their recent upswing.
If Liverpool defeats Spurs this weekend at Anfield, they will go above Spurs and be seven points ahead of fourth-placed Manchester United.
Reds manager Klopp anticipates his team to give it their all in a late-season drive for a spot in the Europa League or the Champions League.
We'll take what we can get, he said. Although we didn't expect the season to be great, it did teach us a few things. Europa League, if it is, is Europa League.
"We want to lay the groundwork for qualification for the best case scenario. Squeeze out everything.
The Reds' return to form has encouraged Klopp, but he wants more.
It's too soon to talk about consistency after three straight victories, the German remarked. I am pleased with the performances right now since I noticed a lot of the qualities that the coach likes to see in games.
"I realize from the outside that outcomes are everything, but you're looking for levels of performance. Although we prefer to concentrate on ourselves, we cannot discount the opponent's abilities.
"There's always room for improvement. I couldn't be happier with us right now, but we need to remain focused and demonstrate that three points are the most valuable reward in football.
After coming back from two goals down to tie 2-2 with Manchester United on Thursday, center-back Ibrahima Konate is available to play when Tottenham travels to Merseyside.
Last weekend's 6-1 defeat by Tottenham at Newcastle United led to the firing of interim manager Cristian Stellini and the appointment of Ryan Mason as manager for the remainder of the campaign.
