Dirk Kuyt is looking to close the gap on the top four over the busy festive period. With the Reds having a run of winnable fixtures coming up, Kuyt is hopeful of closing the gap between Liverpool and the Champions League places. "This period is one of the most important of the season," he said. "If we can produce a good run I'm sure we will be up near the top four. "I'm sure a lot of the top teams will drop points this month. If we could get four good results in a row then who knows? Certainly the gap will be close. "December is always a special month in the Barclays Premier League and one I always look forward to. "It's hard work with four games in 10 days but that's what you want. I love to play games and always want to play as many as I can. "Hopefully at the beginning of the new year we can look back and say it was a great time for us and we climbed the table."
