Gerrard Guides Liverpool Back to Winning Ways

The 'Pool turned it up when the occasion called.

And that saddened Leicester City.

Liverpool have been the victim of a hectic schedule this season. With UEFA Champions League participation, the Merseyside Reds were finding it hard to cope with both the pressure and Daniel Sturiddge's injury. Their margin of error has been trimmed to the razor's edge.

The Merseysiders seem to be finally gaining momentum, and with UEFA knockout qualification on the line, the win against Leicester meant more than just three points for them.
