Steven Gerrard's transition to Leeds United would be eased by a key connection he made while at Rangers.
That is the view Ibrox hero Barry Ferguson who says the former Light Blues boss would be a 'good presence' at Elland Road following the departure of energetic coach Jesse Marsch. The American was given his marching orders last week with the likes of Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou touted in some quarters while out of work Gerrard could look for an avenue back in to the coveted Premier League.
It was a failed experiment at Aston Villa for the Liverpool icon after ditching Rangers following a three-and-a-half-year spell at Ibrox. Gerrard lasted around a year in post in the Midlands but was aided by Gary McAllister as his right-hand man after a successful partnership in Glasgow.
