Gerrard approaching his best

Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard believes he is getting back to his best form after a mixed start to the season.

The England captain has played every minute of all 21 Barclays Premier League matches this season, scoring four times. In recent weeks, in particular against Fulham and Sunderland, the 32-year-old has excelled and he thinks now people are starting to see the Gerrard of old.

"I've had mixed experiences this season," he said. "I've passed some unbelievable landmarks for club and country, getting to the 600-games mark and winning my 100th cap for England. But with the slow start we made and being where we have in the league it's been a bit mixed for me."
