Broadcaster Simon Jordan fears Steven Gerrard got it wrong by claiming he's still feeling the heat in the Aston Villa hotseat.
The former Crystal Palace owner remains uncertain over whether the former Rangers boss can rejuvenate the Villa, however, he believes the Liverpool icon got the tone wrong with his downbeat assessment despite going unbeaten in his side's last three English Premier League games.
And the pressure will only intensify if Villa fail to earn a result against basement boys Nottingham Forest - who backed their manager Steve Cooper with a new contract despite a worrying run of results. Speaking on talkSPORT Jordan said: "I always felt it a job of huge jeopardy for him because the reasons they brought him in was to move up through the gears and to sign players. I still think the expectation of the owners was top 10, top eight football club, not a club operating at the bottom of the division, as they did last season, and the way they've started this season.
