Carragher Believes Title Out Of Reach This Season

Liverpool defender Jamie
Carragher has downplayed
suggestions of the club ending
their 21-year wait for the
Premier League this season.
Roy Hodgson's side are aiming
for a return to Champions
League following their failure to
qualify with a seventh-place
finish in the previous campaign,
which ultimately resulted in
Rafael Benitez's departure,
despite pressure from free-
spending Manchester City.
Carragher, who was an ever-
present in the side that finished
runners-up in 2009, insists that
Liverpool have the potential to
collect silverware this season
but feels that delivering
Anfield's first domestic crown
since 1990 will be highly
difficult.
He said: "People have said
'You've done this and that for
Liverpool' but we've not won a
trophy for four years and that is
annoying me a little bit.
"I certainly don't want to go on
another couple of years not
winning one before I finish at
Liverpool.
"I don't see any reason why we
can't win a trophy this season
or the next couple.
"The one I haven't won is the
league but I suppose that will
be very difficult this season
going from seventh last season.
"But I see no reason why we
can't have a good go and have
a trip to Wembley."
