Barnes optimistic but cautious about Liverpool�s chances

A left footed midfielder of note during his playing days, Barnes said Liverpool should be content even if they do not finish as champions.

“They have done well, even if they finish third. I urge the Liverpool fans not to be disappointed if they don’t finish first,” he said.  Liverpool are top of the Barclays Premier League with a two-point gap ahead of Chelsea, but face a daunting task against third placed Manchester City on Sunday. City have two games in hand.
