Nathaniel Clyne has claimed that Liverpool will not accept anything less than a spot in the top four this season.

The England international arrived at Anfield earlier this summer as part of the club's plans to close the gap on their rivals in the battle for Champions League qualification, and the full-back has played key role in 1-0 victories over Stoke City and Bournemouth.

Clyne insists that Liverpool do not want to prioritise one competition, but he is hopeful that a solid defence will lead them back to Europe's elite club competition following last season's group stage exit.

"We're involved in a lot of competitions. We've got Europe, the FA Cup and the Premier League," he told Sky Sports News.

"We are going to try to go into those games looking to win every single one of them. The aim is top four or anything higher. We've done a lot of work on the training field and organisation.

"Everyone knows their roles and their jobs. We've also the hunger to defend and try to keep the ball out the net. That's the main thing really."

Liverpool travel to the Emirates Stadium to face Arsenal on Monday night.
