Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers has pinpointed December's defeat to Manchester United as the turning point in his side's season.
The Reds were beaten 3-0 back on December 14, and Rodgers's side have not lost in the Premier League since.
He told the Liverpool Echo: "Old Trafford wasn't the first time we played [3-4-3] as we looked at it in the cups and against Newcastle away. But it was probably the game where I felt I was clear to go with it over a run of games and we'd look to work with that type of striker.
"The result against United wasn't great and we had criticism because we lost but I was pleased with how dynamic the team looked.
"We looked fast again. The co-operation between the different units was much better. That gave me the real confidence that we could then have a total shift in terms of system to get the style back into how we work."
