Lazar Markovic has admitted it will take time for him to settle in to life at Liverpool.

The Serb has endured a tough start to his Anfield career following his £19.8m move from Benfica in the summer.

Markovic has made six appearances for the Reds in all competitions, but is yet to convince.

He was left out of the starting line-up for Saturday’s win over West Brom at Anfield.

The 20-year-old, though, told reporters in his home country that he is adjusting well to life on Merseyside.

He also echoed manager Brendan Rodgers’ sentiments that it could take a while before Liverpool fans saw the best of him.

“You know how things go in football, I’m getting there and adjusting well,” he said.

“It will take a little more time but, all in all, I feel okay.

“I feel great there and everybody has been great with me. I could not wish for more. I’m happy and that is the most important thing.

“My team-mate is the legendary Steven Gerrard, the fans love me and Anfield is great. But, as I said, I just need a little bit more time.”
