Reds manager Brendan Rodgers has indicated that speaking to Gerrard about a new contract is on the agenda with the Liverpool and England skipper having 15 months left of his current deal. But Gerrard's thoughts are firmly fixed on Liverpool avoiding the inconsistency he believes they have paid a heavy price for this season.He continued: "Of course, I'm happy that the club are mentioning new contracts, but it's not important at the moment. What we need to do is put pressure on for that European place. A lot of the teams above us need to play each other. We're hoping there's a few slips ups above us and we can capitalise but it's important that we take maximum points.Liverpool have closed the gap on sixth-placed Everton in the Barclays Premier League to three points, and Gerrard said: For me, it (contract talks) is not a priority at the moment. The most important thing for me now is to move on to the West Ham game. I want to finish the season strong. I'm feeling good.
