Gerrard targets Next season

The race for the title this year in the Barclays Premier League has been competitive, and to Captain Steven Gerrard, the strength of character gained through the difficult times, regretful moments and lessons learned from major risk-taking is forming the starting point for remarkable triumph in the next football season in August.

Liverpool placed second behind Manchester United though goals from Gerrard and Kuyt gave Liverpool a 2 – 0 win at West Bromwich Albion to send the Reds to 83 points and add an additional goal for Gerrard to hit 24 of all Liverpool’s goals this season.

Gerrard’s admiration was in the way his teammates have pursued Manchester. His strong desire was the top rank, but though the Reds could not reach the title, they scored more goals and lost fewer matches than Fergie’s Club. Gerrard believes that the experience gained through their challenges should leave him and his team to be confident they can take the final step to glory next year.

“I’ll have certain regrets when the season ends but I don’t normally like looking back, to be honest,” he said. “This time I’m going to use the experience to drive me on and try to win the title over the next few years. We certainly have the ability, as we’ve shown this year.”

“It’s a hard league to win and it’s taught me that you do need the experience of being in title races to win them. I think because Chelsea and United both have that experience, maybe that’s where we’ve come unstuck.

“Sometimes you just have to go for it and take big risks to win the kind of games that we have drawn. But we’ve learned a lot and I think next year could be our year – I’m really confident about that.”

Gerrard also finds impression and hope in the form of his team and the way they have played.

“If you see our form and the way we have played since he signed the new deal, it has given everyone a big lift and that is what this club is all about – togetherness,” said Gerrard.

The target is set, and all paths are leading to a remarkable Liverpool glory in the next season, as the Fans’ Player of the Year and football writers Player of the Year, Captain Steven Gerrard maintains his position in the strong Liverpool squad to face next season.
