Glen Johnson Pleased To Be Back In The Running For Champions League Spot

Liverpool right-back Glen Johnson has expressed his delight that his side has seemingly come through their sticky start to the season and are now in contention for European places in the Premier League.

After one win in their first eight games, it looked bleak for the Merseysiders, but a sharp increase in form, sparked by Fernando Torres, has seen them shoot up the league and is now just six points behind fourth-placed Manchester City.

Johnson told Sky Sports News: "We are still quite close to the top and, if we can keep going, then I'm sure we can be close to where we want to be.

"It surprises me that we are within sight of fourth place when you consider some of the points we have dropped."
