Gerrard Confident Of Good Showing This Season

Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard believes the club can bounce back from the "horror" of last season.

Early exits from the Champions League and FA Cup were followed by a seventh-placed finish in the Barclays Premier League, the Reds' worst for more than a decade.
Manager Rafael Benitez left in the summer for Inter Milan but following the appointment of Roy Hodgson at the start of July a wave of optimism has swept over the club.

"It's a great club and after speaking with Roy Hodgson I'm really pleased to see his plans for the club," said the England international. "It's a new era now - we must forget about the horror of what happened last season and get this club back to where it belongs, which is the Champions League at the very least."
