Liverpool currently sit top of the Premier League.
Mark Lawrenson has told BBC Sport that critics of Liverpool are missing the point.
Lawrenson concedes the Reds have not been playing their best free flowing football of 12 months ago, and insists that it does not really matter while they are winning.
Liverpool are two points clear at the top of the Premier League table, although title rivals Manchester City do have a game in hand.
Lawrenson said: “People are still saying that Liverpool are not playing particularly well but they have not lost any of their past 10 league games and they are in a very good position.
“It doesn’t really matter how well they play now anyway, because winning is all that matters for Jurgen Klopp’s side.”
Liverpool host Tottenham Hotspur this weekend, who have lost their last two away games to Burnley and Southampton.
Aside from those results, Spurs do have a strong away record, but Lawrenson is tipping Liverpool for a 2-1 win.
Tottenham managed a 2-2 draw at Anfield last season, with the Reds winning at Wembley earlier this season.
