Momentum key for defender

Jose Enrique believes it is key the team head into Saturday's FA Cup final with momentum and that means beating Fulham at Anfield

The eighth-placed Reds have nothing to play for in the Barclays Premier League except for catching near-neighbours Everton immediately above them. Winning a second cup of the season is far more important but Enrique said they could not afford to waste the confidence boost given to them by last weekend's 3-0 win at Norwich. "It was a good start to a big week for us," said the Spaniard. "We have to beat Fulham first before we think about the Cup final. "I know we aren't playing for anything in the league but it's important for us to get three points to get some confidence ahead of the final. "It's a home game and we want to do well. Then we have an amazing final to prepare for."
