LIVERPOOL MIDFIELD general and England national team player Steven Gerrard says that the English Premier League giants have a 'good chance' to win more trophies this season.

Gerrard spoke to Young Post over the phone before leaving for the club's whirlwind tour of Asia.

'We have a very good chance of winning the Premiership, and we will try to get back into the Champions League,' said the 22-year-old.

Liverpool failed to qualify for this season's prestigious European club competition because they lost their final Premier League game against Chelsea last May, finishing in fifth place.

Only the top four can compete in the Champions League.

'It was disappointing not to do it this season, but we should be playing there. It is where we belong. I hope we can do better next season,' Gerrard said.

The Premier League championship race would be tighter than ever, he predicted.
