Sami Hyypia insists Liverpool's recent wobble is not a direct result of added pressure placed on the side.
The Reds continue to set the pace in the Premier League title race, but three draws in their last four games has allowed the chasing pack to remain hot on their heels.
Rafa Benitez will also be concerned by the fact that his troops are struggling to grind out results at Anfield.
Goalless stalemates against West Ham and Stoke were followed by a 2-2 draw with Hull on Saturday, ensuring their lead over closest challengers Chelsea remains at only a solitary point.
Veteran centre-half Hyypia claims Liverpool remain on course to end their 19-year wait for a top-flight crown, but admits there are issues which need to be addressed ahead of Sunday's clash with Arsenal.
"We're top of the table and should enjoy it and be confident of doing our jobs," said the Finnish defender.
"It will be a tough game against Arsenal but we'll go to win and hopefully come out with three points.
Disappointing
"We're only in December but it's very close and there's a long way to go.
"It's disappointing we didn't finish the job (against Hull). We tried to do everything we could but it didn't work.
"Of course things could be better, we could have more points than we do, but we just have to live with that.
"It's disappointing to draw at home again but we need to look forward.
"If we knew what it was we'd address it and wouldn't have had three draws.
"I didn't feel personally that there was extra pressure on us or anything."
