James Milner believes Liverpool are a different team this year as their momentum and consistency increase.
Saturday's 5-1 win over Hull was a fourth in six Premier League matches, with a 2-0 loss at Burnley the only defeat so far.
Last season, Liverpool often struggled against teams that set out to defend and Milner told the club's official website: "We knew we could improve against teams that sit back a bit more, but I'm seeing a different team this year.
"The performance in every game, you know it is us that were playing -- even Burnley wasn't too bad a performance, it was the final third that let us down.
