Gerrard warning to rivals


Steven Gerrard insists there is still a lot more to come from Liverpool this season.

The Anfield men face West Ham at Upton Park on Saturday intent on stretching their current run to four successive victories.

"We are finding our form," Gerrard said. "Last weekend we felt that in the victory over Burnley we started to click into form. That performance was much more like what we are looking for."

Liverpool expect to have Brazilian full-back Fabio Aurelio back in the side, while midfielder Javier Mascherano has now recovered from a pelvic problem and is expected to play against his former club.

Skipper Gerrard believes Liverpool are starting to run into form and he is aiming for a repeat of last season's 3-0 win in east London that included a double from the England midfielder.

"There is a lot more to come from us this season," he added. "We are improving with every game, and the goals are being shared around. Yossi Benayoun got a hat-trick against Burnley, Dirk Kuyt is always capable of scoring while I believe that Fernando Torres is the best striker in Europe.

"If we create chances we have plenty of players capable of putting the ball into the net, and that makes it hard for anyone playing against us. They just cannot keep one or two players quiet, because we have dangerous players all over the pitch."
