Liverpool have made the best ever start to a league season following their 1-0 win against Tottenham Hotspur last week.
Jurgen Klopp’s men are currently unbeaten in the Premier League, having won 20 games out of their first 21.
Despite the Reds’ ruthless start to the season, the Norwegian coach has admitted that, Liverpool must maintain their current high standards for far longer to be mentioned in the same breath with great teams like Sir Alex Ferguson’s Manchester United.
Ahead of Manchester United’s trip to face Liverpool in the Premier League on Sunday, Solskjaer said great teams are those who can sustain success not a flash in the pan.
"If you are taking the long view, the very best teams are the ones who can do it again and again and again," he said.
"No one really matches Sir Alex in that respect but I would be the first to admit Jurgen Klopp has done a great job at Liverpool.
"At the moment he seems to know what he’s going to get every time he puts a team out, though we are only just past halfway through the season and there are still a lot of games to go.
"If you look at Liverpool now, they have 33 wins and five draws from their last 38 [league] games. That's 104 points, so it would have been a more than decent season.”
"They are doing well, to say the least, and could win a treble this season but let's see where they are in May. They have a couple of difficult games coming up."
