Jamie Carragher has told his teammates to forget about their Champions League defeat and concentrate on turning European form into a sustained challenge for the Premiership title.
he 29-year-old knows he and his teammates have work to do to get closer to Manchester United and Chelsea next season after finishing 21 points off the pace this time around.
Carragher said: "We've got to another Champions League final and had some great scalps like Chelsea, but no one will remember that. It's about winning and that is what everyone at this club wants to do. It's all about winners.
"What happens in the summer is up to the manager, but now we want to start again.
"We have got to do a lot better in the Premiership and go one better than we did a couple of seasons ago when we finished eight or nine points behind Chelsea. We've got to transplant the ruthless efficiency we have shown in Europe into the league.
"I think we will move forward now. Beating the likes of Barcelona and Chelsea, that gives you great confidence, and we have got to remember that and take it into next season."
Meanwhile, Xabi Alonso, who will be offered a new deal on Merseyside, has revealed he is very happy with life in Liverpool.
He said: "It's great to be a part of Liverpool. I like it here. The fans have been amazing throughout the campaign. They did their bit. Sadly we couldn't give them the win they deserved."
