Gerrard will visit Liverpool at Anfield
Aston Villa boss Steven Gerrard says he is willing to sacrifice his popularity at Liverpool to earn
a win against his former club on Saturday.
Gerrard played 710 games and scored 186 goals in a 17-year career at Anfield before.
The former Liverpool captain helped the Reds to a memorable Champions League triumph in 2005 and
he also won two FA Cups, three League Cups and the Uefa Cup with the Merseyside club.
After retiring as a player, the former England skipper coached Liverpool’s youth academy and then managed their
Under-18 team during the 2017-18 season before taking charge at Scottish club Rangers.
He replaced Dean Smith at Villa last month and, after nine points from 12,
has lifted the Midlands side from 16th to 10th in the Premier League.
