I happen to think he is right and in my view we have a decent chance albeit outside is the most likely option. However he also says we should have kept Dalglish so maybe his judgement is not all it should be. But I suspect here he is just being kind Dalglish is a friend of his and generally Gerrard is being diplomatic. What else could he say on the subject of Dalglish? But on the fourth place good to hear some otimisim in the camp http://www.iol.co.za/sport/soccer/premie...83#.UBKFB6BdCnA IF YOU WANT TO BE HEARD SPEAK SOFTLY - BOB PAISLEY

Gerrard has to say this anyway while being interviewed because you don't expect a captain to just say we'll struggle and probably finish 6th. Any other player would of said the same. Back to Back World Champions baby!

You are constantly throwing that into your points and its pretty pointless and irrelevant. Yes we finished 8th last season. Yes there was a big points gap Yes we underachieved Yes we still don't know how we will gel as a team but if we simply improved our home form and increased our goals tally by as little as an extra goal in 5 games it could add another 10 points easily based on last season Yes Newcastle overachieved Yes Arsenal without RVP will be significantly weakened Yes Chelsea are bedding in new players and no guarantee of immediate gelling Yes Spurs are going to lose Modric and will not sign Moutinho as their no 1 target. Adebayor is also not a guarantee and may go abroad to chase the money. This is not blind faith optimism, this is realistic goals to set for Liverpool while at the same time aware of the difficulties we will face

If you are basing it on us underachieving while our rivals overachieved cant every team from about 14th upwards say the same and claim to have a chance of Champions League.

Great players sometimes don't win things. I think he can still be proud of his career as he has racked up quite a few medals. I don't think not winning the title is that big of a deal, many greats have never won the world cup but they are still regarded as the best. Back to Back World Champions baby!
