Murphy praises Reds

Last updated : 25 September 2006 By Al Campbell
Murphy, who impressed for Spurs against Liverpool on Saturday, believes his former club will be there or there abouts come May, especially with Steven Gerrard leading the charge.

"If Steven Gerrard stays fit Liverpool have always got a chance of doing anything in any game," said Murphy.

"He can make things happen, he can change games and he showed that today.

"Liverpool can achieve anything. With a full strength team they are a match for anybody.

"They were unlucky not to get something at Chelsea last week.

"I suppose it makes things more difficult that the team is changed a lot.

"Rafael Benitez tends to do it more than most but looking at what he's done you can't really argue with his decisions.

"The problem is the amount of games stops you from playing your best players in every game and keeping all the players fit."
