“Against Bournemouth we cut the mistakes out and the first half was a very pleasing performance, probably as close as we’ve come to last season’s standards.
“We need to keep going and keep winning. We have a tough game at the weekend against Arsenal and then we have got a run of fixtures which are a bit more kind to us.
“If we can get a big result against Arsenal and build on this, I think we can turn it around. I think this is where you find out what kind of players you’ve got in the dressing room.
“It’s time to roll your sleeves up and fight for the club and try to put things right as soon as possible – and that’s what we’re trying to do.”
A couple of goals from Sterling and an assist and goal for Lazar Markovic marked an impressive display from a relatively young and inexperienced front-line and it will have given Rodgers something to think about as he looks for ways to exploit Arsenal’s similarly fragile back-line.
Gerrard went on “It’s been tough to perform because we haven’t played well as a team and so there have been tough days of late.
“But if we keep fighting, keep performing, roll your sleeves up, keep giving everything you’ve got, I’m sure the good days are not too far away.
“Wednesday night was satisfying and gives you a bit of breathing space but you all know we can only enjoy it that night and then it’s gone, because we start preparations for the Arsenal game.”
