Steven Gerrard has explained how Luis Suarez was the best player he shared a dressing room during his 17-year Liverpool career, ahead of the likes of Fernando Torres and Xabi Alonso.
The ex-Reds skipper is now at the helm of fellow Premier League outfit Aston Villa as manager, but spent time reflecting on his playing days with former England teammate Gary Neville as part of the Overlap series. Ex- Manchester United star Neville asked Gerrard who his most gifted teammate was out of Suarez or Torres and the Liverpool icon conceded he is faced with that question plenty of times.
"I get asked this question all the time. They’re both phenomenal but I’d say Suarez just because he had everything," Gerrard said. "I played with some top players – Xabi Alonso, Javier Mascherano, Torres – but Suarez was just different. No matter who you were playing you just had a feeling that he was going to win you the game, every game."
