Gerrard vows to prove his critics wrong

AFP, LOS ANGELES: Steven Gerrard vowed to prove critics of his move to the Los Angeles Galaxy wrong here Tuesday as he prepares to make his long-awaited debut for the Major League Soccer giants.
The 35-year-old former Liverpool and England captain insisted he was motivated by the prospect of adding more silverware to his CV rather than a last bumper paycheck in the California sunshine.
“It’s all about success for me. I’ve come here to win,” Gerrard told a press conference at the Galaxy’s StubHub Centre stadium. “If there’s anyone out there who thinks I’ve come here for a holiday or a last paycheck they are going to be proved wrong.”
The inspirational midfielder decided to follow in the footsteps of former England teammate David Beckham last November as it became clear he was no longer an automatic first choice at Liverpool.
“I had options to stay in the Premier League, I had options around Europe, but I didn’t want to compete against Liverpool,” Gerrard said.
