Ljungberg eyes Euro spot

West Ham United midfielder Freddie Ljungberg believes European qualification is a realistic target for this season.
Alan Curbishley's side face Wigan Athletic on Saturday looking to pick up their second Premier League win on the spin following the midweek 1-0 success over Liverpool.
The Hammers are now tenth in the table and just two points off eighth-placed Blackburn Rovers in the battle to secure a place in the UEFA Cup.
"I said from the beginning that Europe is a realistic aim," said Ljungberg, who arrived at Upton Park from Arsenal in the summer.
"That's why I joined the club, to build something. We looked at the table - I said it before - there are not that many points up there.
"If we can just keep our form going it looks quite good for us. We shouldn't get a big head - we should just keep going."
