Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard says the club now have in place the right structure to start winning trophies again.
"What I can say to the fans is that Liverpool will be back among the trophies sooner rather than later because we are moving in the right direction," he said.
"We have got fantastic players, the structure of the club is healthy from top to bottom and when that is the case then the team won't be too far away from winning."
greater chance
Gerrard also believes Liverpool's wait for another league title, which now stands at 21 years, has a greater chance of being ended.
Despite a total of 18 league titles over the years, Liverpool have yet to claim the Premier League crown.
The Merseysiders saw their tally of titles overhauled by Manchester United in 2010/11 and Gerrard is determined to help the Anfield aces get back on level terms.
"We will get the championship again. It's difficult to say when because that adds a lot of pressure to the team," he added.
Gerrard missed the final weeks of last season with a troublesome groin injury but expects to be fully fit and firing for the new campaign when Liverpool hope to be pushing strongly for honours.
