Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard has said that it is too soon for the club to be talking about their chances of winning the Premier League title.

The Reds have enjoyed a strong start to the season and they are currently second in the table, just two points behind leaders Arsenal.

The Premier League is the only trophy to have eluded Gerrard in his club career, but he has maintained that a top-four finish is the main priority for Liverpool this season.

"I think it's important for me as captain of the team not to raise expectations," he told EPSN.

"When you're talking about winning titles, it's premature, it's too early. And I don't want to get anyone's hopes up. That would be unfair.

"Our dream and our plan at the beginning of the season was to break into the top four."

Liverpool visit local rivals Everton in the Premier League on Saturday.
