Steven Gerrard says Liverpool must show more commitment to beat Manchester United this weekend.The midfielder will not be fit in time for the clash between the two sides on Saturday, after the groin operation that caused him to miss this week's England World Cup qualifiers
"That's a bit too soon," he told The Guardian when asked about a comeback against United.
"I've a decent chance for the Champions League game in Marseille. I've spoken to the manager and told him I'd like to do a certain amount of training before I come back. I don't want to go into a big game only having had one session with the boys."
However, despite missing the game, Gerrard had some words of advice for his teammates.
"Against Chelsea in the cups, we've done them more than they've done us, but in the league we have to be a bit more attack-minded to win.
"Over the last couple of years we've gone into games against United and Chelsea very organised tactically - defensive if you like - and still lost 1-0.
"Have the same sound defence and show more bollocks going forward, and it could be 1-0 to us.
"In these matches the first goal is massive; if you concede it, nine times out of 10 you don't get back. It's important a few risks are taken to try to score that goal against these teams because it gives you such a psychological boost."
