Woeful campaign hurts Stevie G
Steven Gerrard feels hurt by Liverpool's dismal season. The Reds dull 0-0 draw with Wolves on Wednesday left the legendary club facing an uphill battle in their bid to finish in the top four and thus secure Champions League football next season. "There are a lot of people in the dressing room who are hurt at seeing us lying in seventh and eighth position, and you learn a lot from these situations when times are hard,” revealed Gerrard on Thursday. Despite the result it extended the Reds unbeaten run to five matches, something not lost on a downcast Gerrard. "We believe we've turned the corner. The most important thing for me has been the character and desire players have shown. As captain, that gives me major confidence. Nobody is hiding and that's a big positive.”
