Stevie: I will never give up

SipperSteven Gerrard says he will never conceed the Premiership title race is over.

He said: “We’re playing a lot better now and I’d say we’re back to our consistently true level for the first time this season,” the Reds captain told the club’s official website.

“We’re keeping clean sheets, scoring goals and, most importantly, working hard for our results.

“The frustrating thing for us is we made a slow start again, just like last season, and left ourselves so far behind.

“But there’s a hell of a lot of football left to be played this season. All the top sides have still got to come to Anfield.

“I’m naturally positive and I know we’ll fight on and never give up. At the same time, you know you’ve got to be realistic.

“I just like the way things are going now, because we all know what this team is capable of and no matter what anyone thinks, we’re not a million miles away from the top two.

“I think we’d all prefer it if no-one talked about us and then maybe we could creep up, but if anyone asks me, you’ll never hear me saying we’ve got no chance.”

Just quietly, and i now this sounds very very optimistic, but I think the top 2 will drop points over XMAS period and we will close to within 10 points and i honestly believe we can nick the title this season……….as long as we dont do anything silly……..CMON…
