Liverpool's Gerrard knows England already being wrote off

Liverpool's England skipper Steven Gerrard knows not much is expected from the Three Lions at the Euros.

Gerrard agrees expectations are not high for England at Euro 2012.

He said: "It's difficult to play at this level with expectations too high and the pressures that go with it.

"There's still going to be a certain level but I suppose there's a bit more realism about. Maybe there is a bit of doubt around and a lack of belief in this group of players.

"I've heard whispers that people are saying this is the weakest group of players we've had for a long time with England.

"But we have a chance to prove this is a good team and to get a bit of belief and confidence into the public."
