Rafa: don't write off Liverpool
Rafa Benitez believes people should write off Liverpool at their peril as the Spaniard feels there is still plenty of legs left in Liverpool's title challenge as we enter the final quarter of the season. With eight games to go and a crucial game against Man Utd on Sunday, Benitez remains hopeful Liverpool can still challenge for the top honour.
"How near we finish to the top now will be interesting," the Reds boss told the club's official website.
"We have been criticised this season, but let us see where we are in three or four weeks.
"We have important games and if we win them we will be a lot closer. If we can beat Manchester United we will be closer to the top, and that will give us more confidence.
"If we beat Everton after that then we will be closer still. Maybe, maybe we can be closer if we do not talk too much about it.
"Do we have a point to prove? Maybe, but only if we can keep winning three points."
