Reina relishing remainder of season

28 January 2011 07:30
Liverpool goalkeeper Jose Reina reflected the optimistic mood infusing the squad after back-to-back wins by talking about an "exciting time" ahead. Contrasting victories over Wolves and Fulham have lifted the Reds into seventh in the Barclays Premier League, their highest position all season after the worst start since 1953/54. They are now only six points behind fifth-placed Tottenham and Reina believes they can look ahead to the rest of the campaign with confidence. "It's an exciting time and we still have half of the season remaining so there are a lot of points at stake," he said. "We want to get as high as we possibly can in the league. It is really competitive and we have to keep this up. "We still have the Europa League to come (Liverpool face Sparta Prague in the last 32)."
