Chelsea defender Rudiger: Top 4 finish in our hands | OneFootball

Chelsea defender Toni Rudiger says a top four finish is their target ahead of meeting Liverpool on Thursday.

The draw against Manchester United took Chelsea to within a point of West Ham in fourth, with Leicester City a further four points ahead.

"It depends on us," Rudiger told Chelsea's website. "We still have a lot of games to play and also against direct opponents so the battle is still in our own hands.

"What the coach has brought is his way of playing, detailed work and the defensive shape is very good at the moment.

"Our aim is to arrive in the top four. We don't need to look at Man City at this moment because they are far ahead but with the top four, everything is open."

He also said, "The way we set up has been good and we always try to play from the back. Things have been going good but there's a long way to go and we have to keep improving."
