Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard says his team consider themselves "dark horses" for the Premier League title this season.

Niall Quinn says Liverpool are 'bang in' the title race after their win in London. Sky Sports expert Quinn told Match Choice: "It's a big, big win especially with Chelsea messing up, Arsenal as well didn't get the victory and this win propels them in to the title race for me. "They also had a great result at weekend thrashing Arsenal. The manager will probably play it all down of course but to go away on a cold, wet and very windy night, to be down twice and to have I suppose the drive and resolve to go and get the victory will count for a lot and I for one enjoyed a great game of football but it was heart breaking for Fulham. "For it to be a great year for Liverpool they may look back on this game and say what a pivotal moment it was because they came back twice and to go on and snatch it at the end - they're the type of games and wins that really add up to something special at the end and Liverpool fans are dreaming."
