Kuyt still has hopes of Liverpool Champions League finish

Liverpool forward Dirk Kuyt is looking for the Reds to maintain their current run of form to chase down a top four finish and Champions League football next season. The Reds have climbed to sixth in the Premier League after embarking on a six-game unbeaten run under caretaker manager Kenny Dalglish and are eight points behind fourth placed Tottenham.

Kuyt said: "I think in the league this season, where so many teams are dropping points, a lot of things are possible.

"But we have to look to ourselves - we are unbeaten for a while now, let's have another three points on Sunday and then let's see where we are in five or six games.

"If we can close the gap a little bit more, who knows what is possible?

"It is always good when you see your rivals dropping points, but at the end of the day you have to bring the points in yourself.

"That is why the team was disappointed with the draw against Wigan, but now another game is coming up against West Ham and hopefully it will be another away win."
