Liverpool forward Dirk Kuyt is targeting silverware this season after suffering a trophy drought since joining the Merseyside club in 2006.
The Dutch international has revealed that the team are "desperate" for a medal this season and see their best chance in the Carling Cup.
"In all my time as a Liverpool player I have been close to winning trophies," Kuyt said. "There was the Champions League final, the semi-final and also coming second in the Premier League.
"We know we have the squad to do well. Not being involved in Europe this season is a major blow so the Carling Cup is a great trophy to win because we're all desperate for silverware."
Liverpool take on Stoke in the fourth round of the competition tonight.
