Liverpool had a poor start to the season but have been fighting back recently and are now haven't lost in the league for six games, to the delight of Steven Gerrard.

"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," said the Reds' skipper.

"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."
