Brendan Rodgers has cast doubt over Liverpool's credentials to win the Premier League, pointing out it would be unprecedented for a team to go from Seventh to first, according to reports.

He added that Liverpool is mainly fighting to get back into the Champions League spots and they are just trying to improve.
