Gerrard: ready for Marseille

Gerrard: ready for Marseille

09 December 2007 - 15:10

Steven Gerrard feels Liverpool are ready to defeat Marseille and this side will be much more prepared than the side that was defeated by Marseille at Anfield earlier in the season. Liverpool most win to make the last 16 of the Champions League.

  • Chelsea suffer double injury blow ahead of Villa trip
  • Gabriel Magalhaes to sign new Arsenal deal

  • "We're a different side and a lot more confident than the one which lost to Marseille at home."



    He added "Everyone remembers Olympiakos, so our experiences in the past will help.



    "The big difference this time is we're not at home, so that's going to make it tougher, but we're playing good football, winning games and scoring goals.



    "The pressure will be on Marseille as much as us this time. We know we're always expected to go through to the knockout stage, but after they beat us at Anfield and we lost in Turkey, we weren't favourites to qualify.



    "They must have hoped we'd be out of it by now and they'd already be through, but fortunately it hasn't turned out that way.



    "For them not to be sure of going through after already beating us once must worry them, so we've got to take advantage of the chance we've given ourselves."
