Reina insists Liverpool won't allow season to peter out

Liverpool goalkeeper Pepe Reina is determined for the season not to peter out.

The 30-year-old has quickly switched his focus to Chelsea this weekend and the opportunity to finish the campaign with a series of positive results.

"There are still 15 points to play for and it's vitally important we finish the season well," the 'keeper told the Liverpool Echo.

"We need to make sure that we are focused on the games we've got remaining and we need to end the season with a winning mentality. That will be important in terms of next season.

"There will be no shortage of motivation.

"Look at the games we've got left, Chelsea and Everton at home, Newcastle away - those kind of matches are a motivation for any player and even more so when you are wearing a Liverpool shirt.

"We need to get some wins. If that gets us into Europe then good but if not we need those wins for our own pride.

"Whenever you get the opportunity to play for this club you need to give 100 per cent in every game and try to win them all."
