Meet The Best Midfield Dynamo,Steven Gerrard

An idea well expressed is like a design of gold set in silver.........

ONE THING IS CERTAIN, England and Liverpool possess one of the world deadliest midfielders in Steven Gerrard.

The Liverpool skipper's eye for goal makes him one of the few exceptions to the saying that nobody is indispensable. He has the power and guile to break down any defence in addition to having the ability to create goals from nowhere, and can score from all angles.

What can be said about Gerrard that has not been said a million times before? His elasticity,his prowess,his magnificent ball control and long pass,his ferocious yet coming shot,his ability to jump and head; all these have been praised and analysed to the point of death.

There is no way that the story about Liverpool Football Club in world football will be told without the contribution of Steven Gerrard. The story goes that Gerrard career took off about 14 years ago, when he made his Liverpool debut against Blackburn, where he began establishing himself as a first team player at Anfield.

But through sheer confidence,courage and consistency, Gerrard lifted himself from the shadows of scarcity and now has become skipper for both club and country and even criss-crossing football in the world with some of the best managers and footballers has even seen, which some has described him as the No.1 and exceptional in the world of football and went further on to shower praises that He is the Greatest Liverpool Player by some ex-players,manager,journalist and some players who have played with him in the opposing side.

Gerrard has a habit of rising to bait when the stakes are high and has everything in his locker.There is nothing to be won as a player, that he hasn't ; but one thing that is missing in his cabinet is the Premiership Trophy and the World Cup Trophy, which he admitted that it will be difficult for him to win the Premiership trophy for now Now a break down on what people has said about Gerrard, when he made his 600 appearance for Club and 100 caps for Country.
