10 Reasons Liverpool Will Win The Premier League This Year
10. Steven Gerrard Will Avenge 'That' Error
Steven Gerrard's slip against Chelsea is understandably mocked by many non-Liverpool fans- it's only natural given the relentless tribalism between supporters these days- but it was something that was so undeserving given the monumental influence the 34-year-old had been throughout the season. He had scored and created goals regularly, dragging the Reds through tight games and leading his young team superbly. His nerveless penalties against United, Fulham and West Ham kept Liverpool's title dreams alive for far longer than many predicted, and his emotion following the seemingly pivotal victory against City outlined just how much the possibility of winning his first league title meant to him. His Chelsea nightmare will likely have lived with him far more than he might like to admit over these last few months- it may even have played a part in his disappointing World Cup performances- and he will be hungry to avenge that heartbreak this season. Gerrard is a born winner, and a 'Roy of the Rovers' type player who seems to be in charge of his own destiny. The Reds skipper will be so driven that he will give absolutely everything to get over the finish line this time around.
