Gerrard shoulders blame

Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard has accepted the blame for last night’s disappointing 1-1 draw at Wigan but insists extending their unbeaten run is a positive.

Having taken an early lead through Fernando Torres the Reds, after their exertions in the victory against Chelsea on Sunday, tired badly and Hugo Rodallega equalised just after half-time, with the Latics looking the more likely to score.
