4TH SPOT

He said: "I don't know what's going to happen at Chelsea and Charlton. In a way, I've always wanted teams above us to lose - but on this occasion, maybe it's a match I want Chelsea to win so that fourth spot becomes that bit easier for us. I don't really think any of us can get the third spot.

"I'm not saying which team will finish third - but I don't think it will be anybody outside the top three. That means the only spot available, I think, really is that fourth spot. It's a lucrative position, and we've got to try to get it."
