It's still early days - Gerrard
Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard has admitted "enough is enough" after their poor start to the season and has called for the team to rise to the challenge which faces them.
Sunday's 2-1 victory over Blackburn was only the Reds' second in the Barclays Premier League this campaign and, although it was not enough to lift them out of the relegation zone, it has put them within three points of seventh place.
Confidence has started to return to the squad, as demonstrated by the first 70 minutes against Rovers, and even Fernando Torres has started scoring again. Gerrard knows the players now have to build on that performance, especially with four of their next five league matches being against Bolton, Wigan and Stoke.
"The three points will have done wonders for everyone," said the England midfielder. "It is all about getting a sequence of results and we will find out now whether we are capable of doing it. That is the challenge for this team.
"If you do that, you will find yourself climbing the table really fast. Three or four wins on the bounce and you will find yourself in a very healthy position.
"It is early days and there are still plenty of games to play. If we play like we can at Bolton (next Sunday) we can do really well. Enough is enough - we want to put that sequence together."
