Rodgers has lofty goals for Reds

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers insisted fourth place is not the height of his side's ambitions this season after it 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 it moved within two points of Louis van Gaal's fourth-placed team.

The Reds now know they can leapfrog their bitter rival should they defeat it at Anfield this weekend and, having made it five successive top-flight victories, they certainly have momentum.
