Liverpool needs to sign quality players for better performance: Gerrard

London, Apr 21 (ANI): Liverpool skipper Steven Gerrard has said his side needs to sign 'three to four quality' players to ensure a better performance in the next season.

The Mirror quoted the midfielder as saying: "There are teams that have grown significantly in recent times, like Chelsea. In addition, Manchester United has been too strong for many years. Last year we came close to beating them but it is very difficult to overcome such a powerful team."

"Everyone knows that we must learn from this season. Some players have said we need a stronger squad and the key is to have better players and improve. I do not believe in profound changes or a revolution. Three or four quality players should be enough but more quality than quantity," Gerrard added.

Gerrard further said that the Premier League is the food this club needs and the crowd demands that it wins it as it has not won for a long time.

"They want us to win this more than any other competition. We must continue to fight for this, hopefully finishing fourth this season and having a real go next season," he added.

Liverpool skipper appeared positive about winning the league and the Champions League the next season, as his side finished second this season.

He also stressed the importance of winning the competition, as he said, "It is the only trophy left for us to fight for and we want to win it." (ANI)
