The ex-Chelsea defender Glen Johnson says that he has nothing to prove against his old club, but he believes that Liverpool have the quality to get a result at Stamford Bridge.
“It will be massive because you know Chelsea are going to be there or thereabouts at the end of the season and we’d like to think we will be too,” he told the official Liverpool website.
“They are doing well, but they have faults like anybody else, just as Wigan found out.
“It’s going to be a massive game. I enjoy every minute that I put on a Liverpool shirt so it’ll be nice to do it against one of the big teams.
“It is against an old club, but that’s all behind me now and I’m just looking forward to doing the best I can for Liverpool now.
“I’ve got nothing to prove.”
He was then asked if he thought the abysmal game against Fiorentina may affect the teams confidence at Chelsea.
“It was a disappointing performance and result,” he replied.
“The lads can’t wait to get out there, prove it’s a one off and try to pick up points again.
“When you lose it’s important you bounce back with a win.
“We have a fantastic team, a good squad and a great bunch of lads who are willing to work their socks off. If we do that from the start we can get something down there.”
