Liverpool hero John Aldridge was impressed by their win at Newcastle United on Saturday night.
Writing for the Sunday World, Aldridge stated: "I have to be honest, it was hard to find any positives to write in my Sunday World column after the 3-0 drubbing at Wolves a couple of weeks back.
"That was as bad as it has been during Jurgen Klopp's reign and one of the all-time great Liverpool managers confirmed as much after the game.
"Yet the two games since then served up a convincing win in the derby against Everton and last night's 2-0 win against Newcastle a St James' Park.
"No one would suggest Liverpool are back to their best ahead of the mouth-watering Champions League game against Real Madrid on Tuesday night.
"But at least they are now heading into that game with some confidence and momentum behind them, which is a huge step forward.
"It felt like a long way back from there, but the nine days they had between that game at Molineux and the Merseyside derby against Everton were crucial."
