STEVEN GERRARD vows to give bitter rivals Manchester United a massive title boost by beating Chelsea on Sunday.
Gerrard insists Liverpool will not roll over - even if it hands United a fourth straight Premier League crown.
He said: "We have a couple of games left and the idea is to take maximum points and see if we can get into the Champions League through the back door.
"If we take maximum points, who knows? The teams above us might slip up. All we have done is keep the pressure on.
"We won't give up but it would be stupid of me to say this or that is going to happen - it's important to be realistic.
"We are underdogs for fourth position but our fans also know we've got Everton breathing down our necks and we certainly don't want them finishing above us."
Kop fans know even a draw would make United, who play at Sunderland later in the day, favourites for a 19th top-flight title - one ahead of Liverpool.
Gerrard scored twice in the 4-0 rout at Burnley on Sunday as Liverpool made light of crocked Fernando Torres' absence.
He said: "When you can't score and lose your top striker it can damage belief and affect confidence but this was much better."
