Steven Gerrard challenges Liverpool to end trophy drought next term

By , Reporter
Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard challenges the Reds to end their four-year trophy drought after he has left the club next season.

Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard has challenged the squad to end a four-year wait for silverware next season.

The Reds skipper will leave the club in the summer to head to Los Galaxy after 17 years of playing for his boyhood club.

This year's FA Cup final, which falls on Gerrard's 35th birthday, could have been the midfielder's last appearance for the Reds, but they were beaten 2-1 by Aston Villa in the semi-final at Wembley last month.

He told the club's official website: "It was a big disappointment at Wembley, but when you play for a big club you've got to get over it, move on and look to the future.

"Hopefully next year this team and club can compete for all the trophies available."

Liverpool last won a trophy when they beat Cardiff City on penalties to lift the 2012 League Cup.
