Kewell glad to be back

AFP, Liverpool
Harry Kewell is so glad just to be playing for Liverpool this season after four
years oi injury agony the Australia midfielder insists he has yet to think about a new contract at Anfield when his current deal runs out at the end of the season.
Kewell has featured in 11 of Liverpool’s last 14 matches, an indication of the faith manager Rafael Benitez, who frequently alters his line-up, has in the player and the former Leeds favourite will be keen for more first-team action when Wigan Athletic visit Anfield in the Premier League on Wednesday.
"The last four years have been hellish with one injury after another," Kewell, who has had repeated groin problems since moving to Merseyside, told Liverpool FC magazine.
'But I can't even think about a new contract. That is what people have been talking about and saying about me, but I will tell the truth so the fans know the truth.
"And that is why I haven't honestly thought about it. I can't think about it at the moment... I can look no further than the next match."
Kewell added: "Given my Liverpool career, and the way it has gone, all I want to do is take the chance that the manager is giving me. "I want to repay him for that, and the boys who have helped me through, for sticking with me and not giving up.
"You don't want to know what I have been through in four years, with injury after injury. The places I've been mentally during all those times, it has been pretty dark."
Frustration of a different kind has been a problem for Fabio Aurelio, still waiting for his first goal in a Liverpool shirt.
The 28-year-old Brazilian fullback has yet to score since arriving from Benitez’s old club Valencia 18 months ago on a free transfer.
Aurelio was again out of luck in front of goal during Sunday's goalless stalemate against Manchester City which cost Liverpool further ground in the race for the Premier League title.
And they could be 13 points off top spot come Wednesday's kickoff if Arsenal, who start 2008 as leaders, defeat West Ham on New Year's Day.
"I'm looking for my first goal and I hope it happens soon because I have been waiting for a long time," said Aurelio, who twice went close to breaking his scoring duck against City.
Liverpool have failed to find the net in three of their last five outings. But they have never been goal-shy against Wigan though, finding the net 11 times in their five previous Premier League meetings.
Peter Crouch, who has been
linked with a move away from Anfield during the January transfer window, memorably broke his duck for the club with two goals against Wigan two seasons ago.
Available again after serving a three-match suspension, the big England striker will surely come into contention as Benitez rotates his squad, with Dutch forward Dirk Kuyt one of the potential figures to be rested.
After utilising Alvaro Arbeloa at centre-back against City, Benitez will hope to have Sami Hyypia or Daniel Agger available, while Xabi Alonso is likely to start in place of Javier Mascherano.
Wigan, who replaced manager Chris Hutchings with Steve Bruce in November, have it all to do if they are to avoid relegation. Last Saturday's 2-1 home defeat to Aston Villa left them anchored in the bottom three of the table, one point adrift of safety.
But Lalies and England forward Emile Heskey is winning his race to be fit in time to face his former club.
Heskey, who scored 39 topflight goals at Liverpool between 2000-04, has missed the last three games with a sprained ankle, but manager Steve Bruce is confident he will be available for his side’s first game of2008.
"Emile was touch and go for the weekend," said Bruce. "It's vital we don't rush him too much, but I expect everyone to be fit for the game."
