Aston Villa have drawn a line under Steven Gerrard 's time as manager just 11 months after he walked away from the top job at Rangers.
Gerrard left Ibrox off the back of an unbeaten league campaign and lifting the Scottish Premiership title as Rangers brought an end to Celtic's dominance of the top flight. However, after lifting one trophy in Scotland he opted to make the move to the ruthless English Premier League and take over from Dean Smith with the club sitting in 15th in the table. A union between an ambitious manager and a club with designs of gatecrashing the big six.
After the heavy 3-0 defeat to Fulham at Craven Cottage Aston Villa sit in 17th in the table having won just two games so far this term, and only remain outside of the relegation zone on goal difference. Following his departure some fans south of the border have claimed the Liverpool icon should have remained at Rangers to continue to learn rather than make the risky move to The Villains 11 months ago.
