Liverpool midfielder Steven Gerrard has confessed that his career will be incomplete without a Premier League title win.

The England international vowed to continue fighting for the league in his remaining seasons, but insists that he will not dwell on it if he misses out.

"There'd be a hole missing in my career but I don't think I'd spend the rest of my life being irritated or annoyed or frustrated," the Daily Star quotes him as saying.

"I don't think that would be fair on myself. [Ever since] I broke into this team at 18 years of age I've tried to win the title but it hasn't happened.

"I've got a couple more chances and I'll continue to fight for it."

Liverpool go into this Saturday's Merseyside derby against Everton in second place in the table.
