It has been an injury plagued year for the player, but he is now looking likely to play more as he gets his fitness back.
“Without doubt I’ll be glad to see the back of 2011,” Gerrard told the Liverpool Echo.
“It’s been tough but that’s all in the past now. We have got a massive game against Newcastle and we need to take care of that and finish this year on a high before we start thinking about next year.
“But I’m looking forward to 2012. There’s still so much to play for this season. If I can just get a bit of luck and stay fit hopefully I can really enjoy the final five months of the season.”
