L'pool look to end year on top

AFP, London
Liverpool will finish 2008 on top of the Premier League If they beat Newcastle on Sunday.
But they know any slip-ups could be punished by second-placed Chelsea, just a point off the lead, who face Fulham.
On Friday, Chelsea had the chance to apply some pressure by beating bottorn-of-the-table West Bromwich Albion 2-0 in an early kick-off match.
Liverpool responded with a 3-0 Boxing Day win over Bolton at Anfield.
However, roles will be reversed on Sunday with Liverpool's match away to Newcastle at St James' Park starting two hours before the west London derby at Craven Cottage gets underway.
Liverpool haven't been crowned champions of England since 1990 but hopes arc rising in the red half of Merseyside that this might be
their season.
"Being top is important, but this club prepares to be top of the league, not fifth, sixth or seventh," said assistant manager Sammy Lee, who won several titles as a player with Liverpool in the 1980s.
"We are where we want to be at this moment in time.
"This is a long, hard campaign, though. It's nice going into die New Year in this position, but we go to Newcasde on Sunday and that will be a very difficult task for us."
Reigning champions Manchester United, in their first domestic match since winning the Club World Cup in Japan, stayed seven points off top spot Friday, with two games in hand, after winning 1 - 0 away to Stoke City
But it was a frustrating day for the other member of the 'Big Four' as Arsenal surrendered a two-goal lead in stoppage-time in a 2-2 draw away to Aston Villa, the Midlanders retaining their place amongst the leading quartet.
Earlier, Manchester City moved out of the bottom three
with a spectacular 5-1 win over Hull.
Their victory was an ideal response to fellow strugglers West Ham’s 4-1 win over Portsmouth earlier in the day.
Wigan beat Newcastle 2-1 while Everton defeated Middlesbrough 1-0.
The London derby between Fulham and Tottenham and Sunderland’s game against Blackburn both ended in goalless draws.
