Rush sets Reds challenge

Ian Rush has challenged everyone at Anfield to work positively together to aid a rapid climb up the Premier League table.

Despite a lowly league position ahead of the latest international break, Rush remains convinced the quality in Roy Hodgson's squad will soon ensure they are firing on all cylinders once again - hopefully starting in next weekend's derby.

"It is easy to criticise when you are not doing well. You can easily blame everyone but we have just got to get behind everyone," he said.

"We are all in it together, the owners the management, the players and the supporters.

"If we are all fighting against each other it is not working so what we have to do is for everyone to get behind each other and be positive.

"People say we are in the bottom three. I look at it and say we are five points from the Champions League.

"Two wins and you never know how things might change. That's the way I look at it.

"We will come out of this because we just need a bit of confidence and a bit of luck. If we get that...we are playing Everton in the next game. If we win that one everything will change."
