Steven Gerrard Thinking Quotations

I think every player listens out for his name being sung and it's something I really enjoy.

I think we've got a lot players in the squad who are more suited to European football at the moment.

But I think the Champions League Final puts a massive pressure on every player and the manager, but we're enjoying the pressure and hopefully we can go there and win it.

I think everyone around the world knows the tools are there in England's armoury to do well in a World Cup. The challenge is to go out there and prove it.

We were massive underdogs at the beginning of the competition and I'll put my hands up say and I didn't think we were going to go all the way. But, as you can see, we are never beaten. The manager told us to keep our chins up, to try and score early in the second half and give some respect for the fans. The first goal gave us a bit of belief. The supporters have saved up for weeks and months to come here. I am so happy to lift the cup for the fans.

How can I think of leaving Liverpool after a night like this?

Earlier on in the season I'd have been very surprised to think we could win this competition because there were some fantastic teams in it. (on the Champions League)

I think we could do with being a little more adventurous in certain areas and push on that little bit more, while a bit of luck also wouldn't go amiss.
