Liverpool boss Benitez settles for fourth-place battle

Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez admits they're fighting for fourth-place in the Premiership this season.

He said: "We are fighting for fourth position and if we beat Chelsea we can think about maybe third position.

"If we don't, we're running out of games and it'd be very difficult then."

Meanwhile, John Arne Riise, 27, said: "The league is too far away for us now and it's going to be difficult for Chelsea.

"United and Arsenal are very strong and will be hard to catch."
