Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish has no intention of settling for seventh place after a 1-0 victory over Fulham lifted his side to their highest position in the Barclays Premier League this season.

John Pantsil's 52nd-minute own goal turned out to be the decisive moment in the game, although up to that point the major talking point revolved around assistant referee Mick McDonough.

McDonough incorrectly flagged Fernando Torres offside as he raced on to Raul Meireles' sixth-minute through-ball to slot past goalkeeper David Stockdale.

Fortunately for Liverpool it did not matter and the Reds secured back-to-back wins for the first time since early November.

But although seventh represents a considerable improvement in a season when, under predecessor Roy Hodgson, they dropped into the relegation zone, Dalglish cannot be satisfied.

"I think we are better than that," he said.

"It is getting a bit more realistic but we are not getting carried away with being seventh - that is not where this football club wants to be.

"We want to be further up than that but to do that we have to win more games and that is what we will try to do, starting against Stoke next Wednesday."

Asked what his long-term objective was he replied: "To beat Stoke next Wednesday, the same we have done here since I can remember.

"We have never come in at the start of the season and said 'we're going to do this or that', we just went out to do the best we could.

"At the end of the season we added up the points to see where we were and I don't any reason to change that.

"It never did us any harm. It is the only way I know, that is the way I was brought up."

WTH??!!!!...what happen to i'm honouring my contract that u juz said in december???...no matter what happen in the next few days..he'll leave a bad taste to liv fans!!

switch suarez to the left and its perfect!





if kuyt replace by Nzogbia & we have a frightening attacking line up

really really hope the transfer request was written before he knew luis suarez is coming..pity to suarez coz one of the reason he wants to come coz of torres!

whats mind boggling is he handed the request 3 days b4 window close..and the only club to bid him was chelsea??..from atletico to liverpool then suddenly chelsea????...from historic club,passionate loyal fans to plastic flag???...come onnnnnnn...hope its juz another trick to raise his salary that he learn from rooney

yup..after the board raised his salary over 100k per week!!

its 26m euro..bout 22m pound...and yeah i think the board knew bout torres want out..thats why they willing to up the bid for suarez..and the timing of the announcement was somewhat fishy...afternoon suarez deal agreed...at night liv announced torres has handed transfer request...who knows torres actually handed transfer request that early morning...but liv only announce it later last nite after the suarez deal agreed with ajax

wanna bet torres salary will be increased after this fiasco???

understand if he wants to leave..liv is not in great EPL position at the moment..but to plastic flag club????...come onnnnnnn...i tot torres is classier than that







at least alonso & masch pick the right club in real & barca!!

thinking juz like owen ehhh...and then booom!!!..liv become european champions...and he still stuck at real bench!..bet he regret it forever

owen was on his last year of contract..he refuse to sign an extension for watever reason...and cowardly dont want to handed in a transfer request..as a manager u dont want to see one of ur best player going out for free..Rafa have no choice but to sell..differrent reason compare to torres but probably same outcome as owen

give me benzema...but really doubt mourinho gonna let him go in january..maybe in the summer
