Former Liverpool midfielder Jamie Redknapp believes a top four finish is within their grasp next season.
Redknapp believes Steven Gerrard's return will be crucial.
"I hope he is back to full fitness next year - he is Superman," he told Liverpoolfc.tv before teeing off in the Steven Gerrard Foundation Trophy in Portugal.
"Hopefully he can come back to full fitness - that's the key. He's had surgery - I spoke to him and he said he feels great and really strong.
"I think it's really exciting times. With Kenny back there, and Luis Suarez - I love watching him play. It's exciting times for Liverpool and I hope we can get back certainly into Champions League football. With Kenny, I believe that can happen."
