Any hopes Steven Gerrard had of grabbing a quiet cup of coffee were quickly dashed when his whereabouts became online knowledge.
The Aston Villa boss was back in Merseyside, in a Costa Coffee shop in the Central Square Shopping Centre, in Maghull, when he was noticed by another customer. That individual decided to share Gerrard's location on Facebook which sparked a mass onslaught to the popular hot drink chain.
According to the Liverpool Echo, eye witnesses state that more and more people began descending on the shop desperate to get a glimpse of the Liverpool legend. Things even became a tad raucous with some banging on the shop windows.
