Liverpool skipper Steven Gerrard has appealed with England boss Fabio Capello not to give up on him in the national side.Gerrard was below par during the World Cup qualifier against Kazakhstan at the weekend and he has admitted he was trying too hard but he has appealed with the Italian not to give up on him and he is convinced Capello can get the best out of him for the national team.
"He has spoken to me before each game and told me what he wants me to do," said Gerrard. "He's said he wants me to emulate my form for Liverpool for England and he is prepared to help me.
"That's what I want. I don't want a manager to give up on me for club or country. I want them to keep trying to make me better. I've got every confidence in this manager and the set-up he's got behind him to improve my form.
"I'll be honest, I haven't always hit my Liverpool form for England, but it's not through a lack of trying.
"I'm desperate to play well for England. I believe we are getting to where we want to be."
