Erik ten Hag has downplayed Liverpool’s six-game winning run and insisted Manchester United are in the driving seat for Champions League football.
A month ago, the Reds’ top-four dream appeared over, with Jurgen Klopp’s side in eighth place and 12 points behind United. But a relentless run of victories has Liverpool fans believing the race is far from over.
Man United’s lead in fourth spot has been slashed to just one point but they do boast a game in hand over the Reds. Defeat to West Ham last weekend opened Liverpool’s window of opportunity further with just over two weeks of the season remaining.
