Steven Gerrard insists he will never write off Liverpool's
chances of getting back in the title race.
Though Liverpool have convincingly won their last three Premiership
games, they remain 13 points behind leaders Manchester
United.
Few expect The Reds to come back into title contention, but Gerrard
is refusing to concede defeat this season.
Gerrard feels Liverpool are now playing their best football of the
season and the midfielder is determined to maintain a positive
outlook.
"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."
