Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher concedes they've already fallen well short of preseason predictions.

The Reds almost were bundled out of the FA Cup at Reading on Saturday.

"At the start of the season you start with four trophies," Carragher said. "We're out of three of them because we're not going to win the league, Champions League or Carling Cup.

"We've got two trophies to go for and a top-four place. That's three things to go on. For me there is no priority. We're desperate to win a trophy.

"We've had a lot of criticism this season. The same happened in 2005 and we won the Champions League, everyone forgets. I'm sure if we won the FA Cup or Europa League people will look back at this season and say they won a trophy. I'm determined to make sure we leave that mark."
