Swansea - Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has insisted fourth place is not the height of his side's ambitions this season after they set up a perfectly-poised showdown with Manchester United on Sunday.
Jordan Henderson's fortuitous goal earned the Reds a 1-0 win at Swansea on Monday as they moved within two points of Louis van Gaal's fourth-placed team.
The Reds now know they can leapfrog their bitter rivals should they defeat them at Anfield this weekend and, having made it five successive top-flight victories, they certainly have momentum.
