Gerrard: No more slip-ups
16:45, Feb 8 2010
Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard has warned his team-mates they cannot afford any more mistakes if they are to secure Champions League football next season.
On Wednesday they go to Arsenal, where they have not won in the league for a decade, and victory at the Emirates Stadium would put Liverpool just two points behind the third-placed Gunners. But having come unstuck at places like Tottenham, Sunderland, Fulham and Fratton Park this season Gerrard said the team had to build on the weekend's victory over Everton in the 213th Merseyside derby.
"Everybody is still on a high and now we have got to take that high into the next game," Gerrard told the Liverpool Echo.
"It's a tough one, Arsenal away always is, but we have used beating Everton as a platform in the past and we've got to do it again.
"We want to extend our run and go on to better things as we can't afford any slip-ups because there is pressure coming from Tottenham, Manchester City and Aston Villa."
