iverpool new boy Milan Jovanovic insists he has far more to offer the Anfield outfit than he has shown so far.[LNB] The Reds are still finding their feet under Roy Hodgson and following Sunday's goalless draw at Birmingham, currently find themselves in the wrong half of the Premier League table.[LNB]Star man Fernando Torres is coming under scrutiny for his lacklustre displays but Jovanovic accepts others must make a bigger contribution too.[LNB]The 29-year-old Serbian international is yet to score since his summer move from Standard Liege.[LNB]But he insists it is a situation he does not expect to continue for much longer.[LNB]"I was happy with how I played against Birmingham but I know I can do better," the striker told the Liverpool Echo.[LNB]"I am disciplined and trying to build an understanding with the other players.[LNB]"I am not in the best form and I can play better than I have shown so far.[LNB]"But I know I can score goals and make assists for this team. I am sure I can."[LNB]Hodgson has already pleaded for patience as he tries to galvanise a side that had slipped to seventh by the end of Rafael Benitez's final season in charge.[LNB]Jovanovic shares the sentiments.[LNB]It might not be easy without spending huge sums of money Liverpool do not currently have access to.[LNB]But, ahead of Thursday night's Europa League showdown with Steaua Bucharest, he is convinced life will soon start getting better for the Anfield giants.[LNB]"It is going to take time because there are a lot of new players," he said.[LNB]"But if we keep getting the ball to Stevie (Gerrard), we will be much better.[LNB]"I have no doubts that we will climb the table.[LNB]"The Premier League is tough but we are Liverpool. That is what matters."
