Brendan Rodgers: Liverpool FC secure top four finish

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers is confident that his side will finish in the top four at the end of the season.

The Merseyside outfit have won four of their last five league games following a 2-0 victory over Aston Villa, a result which bagged 35 points and sees them sit seventh spot.

Rodgers is now feeling optimistic that the Reds are back on the track and confident to secure top-four challenge in the final months of the campaign.

“If we can get through to the end of January and be near it then, like we showed last year, we can put a run together that can see us in there,” he told reporters.

“It’s still the objective and we’ll keep working – we still have improvements to make.”

“The players have got confidence now in the way of working and they have been performing very, very well.”
