Hodgson: Reds not out of it
Roy Hodgson has warned the Barclays Premier League's top teams not to write off Liverpool in the title race.[LNB]Hodgson saw his Fulham side consign Liverpool to their fifth league defeat of the season with a 3-1 victory at Craven Cottage on Saturday.[LNB]It was Liverpool's sixth defeat in seven matches in all competitions and they languish nine points behind leaders Chelsea.[LNB]But Hodgson told Five Live's Sportsweek: "You never know. They are a very good team, very well organised. They have some very good players and are unlucky at the moment that their talisman Steven Gerrard isn't playing and (Fernando) Torres isn't 100% fit and has to be nursed through the games.[LNB]"But I can see them going on a really good run when they win seven, eight, nine games in a row and if that was to coincide with one or two defeats for the other top teams they would soon be up there again.[LNB]"With a quarter of the season gone it is very early to be writing anybody off. I remember not so long ago Manchester United were lingering in the middle of the table almost halfway through the season and went on to win it."
