Steven Gerrard

Steven Gerrard spoke up the importance of the tie in his pre-match comments.

"It is right up there at the top with the most important games that we have faced and played in.

"The opportunity to achieve the last eight, from where the club was when I came in, is a chance to achieve something that is monumental.

"We want to go and empty everything we have got into this game.

"We don’t have to worry about anything else that is on the horizon after it, we just want to treat this game in isolation and go and give it our best and see where it takes us.

"If we are in that draw, it will be a fantastic achievement from the players."

"We want to do everything we can for the country and to give ourselves the best chance in the future, of course we do.

"But the players just need to be focused on the game plan and the task about worry about what is in front of us and everything else will take care of itself.

"If we can find our best performance and it gives us a positive result, then everything else will take care of itself."
