Brendan Rodgers swooped to sign the Spaniard from Celta Vigo during the close-season amid interest from the likes of Valencia.
Aspas has made a solid start to life at Anfield, starting all three of Liverpool's Premier League fixtures as the Merseyside club have picked up 1-0 victories over Stoke City, Aston Villa and Manchester United.
"Liverpool is a huge club, so I can't really blame him," the Dane told the South Wales Evening Post.
"I have been in football too many years to have thought we'd got him before he had signed. But yes, he was one of the players we looked at, and in the end Liverpool came in.
"He is fast, he is a goalscorer, he has good football intelligence, good movement and he is two-footed, so I think he will do well there."
"If we had got him he would have been the only one (rather than as well as Bony) because of the money involved," he added.
