At a time when it is being reported that he will not become the new manager of Rangers, Liverpool and England legend Steven Gerrard turns 45 years of age today.
Gerrard is seemingly waiting for his next role in the dugout, despite the suggestion being that he felt that the time was not right for a second stint at Ibrox.
His managerial reputation has taken a hit since the unbeaten Scottish Premiership campaign of 2020-21, yet Gerrard will forever be remembered as one of English football's greatest-ever midfielders.
A 710-game stint at Liverpool which brought about nine pieces of silverware etched himself into the club's illustrious history, while a further 114 appearances came in an England shirt.
While he may never have lifted a Premier League trophy like Arne Slot's current crop or top-flight titles like fellow players in the list below, there is an argument that it is impossible to remove the tag of Liverpool's best midfielder in history from Gerrard's shoulders.
