Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard has revealed he is desperate for a taste of the title success experienced by some of his Premier League peers.

Skipper Gerrard has led the Reds to the summit of the table this season, as the Merseysiders look to secure a first league title in almost 20 years.

"When I play in the Champions League now, I try even harder than I did before I won it because I want to experience that feeling again," he told the club's official website.

"I know I have had a decent career and done well so far, but I still have so many ambitions.

"When I see Gary Neville, Ryan Giggs and John Terry lifting the Premier League trophy over their head and I haven't got it, I want it bad.

"And when I get the title, I know what my reaction will be. Simple. I will want another title."

Meanwhile, Gerrard believes this year's title race will go right to the wire with the Reds currently holding a one-point advantage over Chelsea with almost half of the season gone.

"The last three or four years has become a two-horse race in November and December but I think it is anyone's title at the moment," he continued.

"We are happy where we are at the moment. We are disappointed we haven't got a bit of a cushion, but it has been a long time since we have been able to say Liverpool are top of the league in December.

"It is going to be one of the most exciting title races in years. The other teams below the so-called top four are taking points off the top four. No one is running away with it."
