Gerrard told Sky Sports News: "If we were to get back in the top-four next season I think it would be a fantastic achievement. But we will be setting out to win the league, because that's what you do year in and year out at Liverpool."

No agenda, just the words of the man himself.


All sounds pretty reasonable to me. No delusions, no bold predictons. Just an aim that any self-respecting sportsman should have.

Gerrard says it every year, turned that many corners they've done a full circle. I'm pretty sure Clint Dempsey doesn't say such things as he's pretty sure Fulham won't win the league. Just like Liverpool haven't for the past 21 years. Gerrard needs to realise that Liverpool are just like Villa, a team that was quite good in the 80's but just a mid table team nowadays. Four maybe five teams better than them now.

What should he say?

'We've been poop for 20 odd years. I'd be ecstatic if we got 5th?'

No matter how true it is, it ain't going to happen.

I've just watched our England ladies team lose on penalties to France.
There's nowt the blokes can teach them that they don't know already about losing.
They had lost their previous two penalty shoot-outs as well.

I once watched Peter Shilton in an important penalty shoot-out, against Germany I think, dive out of the way of the ball five times on the trot. Those lessons have been learned. :lol:

But it's a well known fact, you can't practice penalties ......and more to the point, saving them :?
Tell that to the Germans.

You're right they were 5 unstoppable, perfect German penalties.
He did guess wrong every time though and made himself look a complete @rse.
I mean you're supposed to do research on your opponents and almost know where the ball is going, apart from a few deviations.
He clearly couldn't be @rsed, or they all changed their preferences.

The French birds were far fitter than the English mingers.

Oh, and football wise, far superior.
