Gary Neville has debunked the theory that Liverpool great Steven Gerrard might have a telling impact on the title race this season. Manchester City boast a three-point advantage on Liverpool and superior goal difference heading into the final three games of the campaign.
City visit Wolves and West Ham in the coming days before drawing the curtains on their latest Premier League tilt against Gerrard and his Aston Villa team on Sunday, May 22. That fixture is one that romantic Liverpool fans are hoping might have a major say on where the trophy ends up.
Gerrard famously slipped against Chelsea in 2014 to effectively cost Liverpool the title as he went his whole playing career without winning that particular medal. However, while he's got a chance to impact the destiny of this year's league, Neville says that City are too good to let it happen at the Etihad Stadium.
