http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809’s captain has been a historic figure at the club due to his performances in the UEFA Champions League final in 2005 and then the F.A Cup final in 2006. Nonetheless, Liverpool are now set to take on Chelsea in the F.A
Cup final at Wembley stadium but this time Gerrard is adamant that his team mates should be prepared to play together and put in an collective performance to win the F.A Cup.
Liverpool have already grasped one piece of silverware as they bested Cardiff City on penalty kicks in the Carling Cup final. The Reds have had a disappointing season as far as the English Premier League is concerned as Kenny Dalglish’s
men have failed to challenge for the Premier League title or even come close to challenging for a place in next season’s UEFA Champions League competition. Regardless due to their win in the Carling Cup final, the Reds will take part in the Europa League next
season.
Gerrard stated, “We've certainly got players in and around the squad who can be match-winners. Not all the pressure's on me. It's up to everyone to deliver trophies for this club. Maybe the knockout nature of the cups has brought
the best out of us this season. But what it also shows is that when we are down, under the cosh and under pressure, this team is never beaten."
He added, "Let's be realistic. At the start of the season our chances of winning the Premier League were quite slim. We had Manchester City's power to contend with and Chelsea's power, Manchester United are always there, so we
were probably fourth or fifth favourites at the time. But we had much better chances of going out and winning the Carling Cup and getting to the FA Cup final and that's what we've done.
