The Reds expect Aston Villa to be able to at least hold Man City to a draw at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday (22/5). If Liverpool are able to beat Wolverhampton Wanderers at the same time, then Virgil van Dijk and his friends will become the Premier League champions.
“I don’t think you need to worry about integrity when you talk to me, our players or Aston Villa,” Gerrard said. Daily Mirror.
“I thought the question [akan membantu Liverpool] it’s not fair, because we will do everything we can to fight for the three points available in every game.”
Gerrard’s statement comes after Liverpool coach Jurgen Klopp is worried with the condition of Aston Villa. Klopp is worried that Aston Villa will not be able to do much against Man City because they have quite a busy schedule.
Before against Man City this weekend, Aston Villa drew against Burnley 1-1 on Friday (20/5) early this morning.
“We will try to make the game difficult [untuk Man City]. We know they have world class players and a world class coach [Pep Guardiola]but our performance is quite good away,” said Gerrard.
“We will try what we can and make it as difficult as we can. There are three points up for grabs from our point of view, and we want to fight for every point.”
