Rafa Benitez has approached the talk of a Liverpool title challenge with much caution after several were talking up their chances of mounting a serious Premiership challenge. The 4-0 home victory over Bolton was their fifth win on the spin and keeps them in touch of the top.
Benitez responded: "We must see whether our rivals make mistakes. Then we will look at the situation again at the end of January before we start talking about titles."
"The last three years we were too far behind at this stage. Now we are closer, we have a better squad and confidence. We must keep going.
"We have a lot of games now in December and January. We must keep everyone focused and concentrating. If we do not make mistakes, then we will be closer.
"I have confidence for the second part of the season. We have players doing well and improving.
"But we have five people injured now - Daniel Agger, Steve Finnan, Xabi Alonso, Jermaine Pennant and Fabio Aurelio. When we get all these players fit, we can play better with more options and quality."
