[LNB]'But we have to look to ourselves - we are unbeaten for a while now, let's have another three points on Sunday and then let's see where we are in five or six games.[LNB]'If we can close the gap a little bit more, who knows what is possible? It is always good when you see your rivals dropping points, but at the end of the day you have to bring the points in yourself.[LNB]'That is why the team was disappointed with the draw against Wigan, but now another game is coming up against West Ham and hopefully it will be another away win.'[LNB] Jamie Redknapp: How I was nailed by West Ham's new Hammer, HitzlspergerAnfield Match Zone: Shot-shy Liverpool need Carroll Liverpool 1 Sparta Prague 0 (agg 1-0): Kuyt heads Reds into last 16Joe Cole watch: Did Liverpool schemer impress against Sparta Prague?Dalglish salutes Liverpool spirit after booking Europa League last 16 placeAll the latest Premier League team news for February 26-28All the latest Liverpool news, features and opinion[LNB][LNB] [LNB][LNB]  Explore more:People: Kenny Dalglish, Dirk Kuyt Places: Liverpool
