Arsenal face a tough trip to Aston Villa on Saturday as Steven Gerrard prepares to take on the Gunners for the first time as manager.
The Villa boss may not have faced off against Arsenal while being situated in the dugout, but Gerrard did face them countless times over the course of his playing career. Arsenal and Liverpool were both regularly competing for a place in the top four when Gerrard was still captaining the Reds, and naturally some games became heated along the way.
Gerrard was never one to shy away from making tough tackles, and the Liverpool captain wore his heart on his sleeve every time he stepped out onto the field. But former Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger once called out Gerrard for a 'reckless' incident, and the pair became involved in a heated clash.
