Though Manchester United won the English Premier League 2008-2009 after picked up a point from a 0-0 draw with Arsenal on Saturday to seal a 3rd successive crown. However, Liverpool 28-year-old inspiring captain Steven Gerrard believes Liverpool now have the necessary experience to claim top spot.

Steven Gerrard said while speaking to The People, “This is the first time I’ve been involved in a title race that has lasted the distance and the buzz of running United really close has been so enjoyable that I want more of it. I’ll have certain regrets when the season ends but I don’t normally like looking back, to be honest.”

“This time I’m going to use the experience to drive me on and try to win the title over the next few years. We certainly have the ability, as we’ve shown this year.It’s a hard league to win and it’s taught me that you do need the experience of being in title races to win them. I think because Chelsea and United both have that experience, maybe that’s where we’ve come unstuck.”

He added, “Sometimes you just have to go for it and take big risks to win the kind of games that we have drawn. But we’ve learned a lot and I think next year could be our year – I’m really confident about that.”

Gerrard expects manager Rafael Benitez to add to his squad this summer and told The People: “The couple of signings the manager will make this summer are really key to us getting over that final hurdle, because we know that maybe with a couple of per cent more we could have won it this time.”
