LIVERPOOL legend Robbie Fowler says he expects Reds owner John W. Henry to afford Roy Hodgson more time, but believes 'three or four' additions will be needed during the January transfer window if the club are to compete in the Premier League's top six.[LNB]On Monday, Henry called for patience from the club's supporters, stating that there would be no 'quick decisions' despite an inconsistent league campaign so far, and Fowler says the club's tradition of backing its managers would continue.[LNB]The former Reds hero - who now plies his trade with Perth Glory in the Australian A-League - said: 'Liverpool are better than they were at the start of the season, which gives us a bit of hope.[LNB]'I think in January you are looking at maybe three or four good players to come in, and then we will see where it takes us. [LNB] "I think they (the owners) will stick with Roy. [LNB]"It is a bit of a transitional period; Roy is new in the job, and Liverpool are renowned throughout their history for sticking by their managers, and I think they will do so again.'
