Steven George Gerrard Bio/Wiki, Net Worth, Married 2018
Steven George Gerrard MBE (born 30 May 1980) is an English footballer who plays for and captains Premier League club Liverpool. He has played much of his career in a centre midfield role, but he has also been used as a second striker, holding midfielder, right back and right winger.Gerrard, who has spent his entire career at Anfield, made his debut in 1998 and cemented his place in the first team in 2000, succeeding Sami Hyypiä as team captain in 2003. His honours include two FA Cups, three League Cups, two Community Shields, one Champions League, one UEFA Cup, and two Super Cups.Gerrard made his international debut for the England national football team in 2000, and has since represented the country at the 2000, 2004 and 2012 UEFA European Football Championships, as well as the 2006, 2010 and 2014 FIFA World Cups – captaining the team at the latter two tournaments. He was named as the permanent England captain shortly before UEFA Euro 2012, where he was named in the UEFA Team of the Tournament. Gerrard became the sixth player to win 100 caps for England in 2012, and is currently third in the country's all time appearance list. He ended his international career in July 2014, having won 114 caps.Gerrard came second only to Kenny Dalglish in the "100 Players Who Shook The Kop", a Liverpool fan poll, and came first in 2013. Zinedine Zidane said in 2009 that he considered Gerrard to be the best footballer in the world. In 2005, Gerrard was honoured as the UEFA Club Footballer of the Year and won the Ballon d'Or Bronze Award. He has also been named in the PFA Team of the Year a record eight times, the UEFA Team of the Year and FIFA World XI three times, and was named PFA Players' Player of the Year in 2006 and the FWA Footballer of the Year in 2009. He is, to date, the only footballer ever to have scored a goal in an FA Cup Final, a League Cup Final, a UEFA Cup Final and a Champions League Final.

107 caps isn't bad for someone who isn't 'a top, top player', is it? I never expected to get that amount of caps. When I made my debut, I set myself the personal target of trying to get 50 caps and score 10 goals if I could. So to have 107 is something I am really proud of, particularly being among those names.
2
It will be a dream come true if I can go there and lift it.
3
But I think the Champions League Final puts a massive pressure on every player and the manager, but we're enjoying the pressure and hopefully we can go there and win it.
4
The Champions League is the competition everyone wants to be in.
5
I think everyone around the world knows the tools are there in England's armoury to do well in a World Cup. The challenge is to go out there and prove it.
6
I am gonna go into my coaching badges after my England days are finished and I have the time on my international break.
7
The fans have played a massive part in getting us to where we are, but the job's not finished.
8
I listen to the phone-ins on the way home and I know how the fans feel.
9
Grilled salmon and brown pasta works for me every time.
10
I'm a fan myself and I'm frustrated just as much as them when we get beat.
11
I watched Italia '90 with my Mum and Dad and my brother, you know, leaping around the house when the penalties were on... It would be great to be part of that, to have that kind of impact.
12
Against Juventus we were massive underdogs, so to beat them was fantastic.
13
But I it doesn't matter who scores the goals so long as we win.
14
When I leave the car park at Melwood, I try and become a completely different person. I try to get away from it. You have got to. Otherwise you end up like Jamie Carragher - obsessed!
15
We are Liverpool Football Club and the expectations are so high.
16
I'm born in Liverpool, I'm a Liverpool supporter.
17
The odds were against us, but we deserve to be where we are.
18
I have no regrets.
19
I think it all goes down to who plays the better football on the night.
20
Hopefully it'll give us a bit of luck on the night, but I'm not really a superstitious person.
21
To me it's the best trophy you can win and to bring it back for all them fans that have supported us right through would be something special.
22
If other people want to talk about my future I can't control that.
23
Even now I can say I'd love to finish my career here, and then stay in the game after that.
24
It's too easy to blame other people in football.
25
I think we've got a lot players in the squad who are more suited to European football at the moment.
26
There's no doubt that the squad needs strengthening if we are to get back up among the top three because they are operating on another level to us at the moment.
27
It was difficult knowing one of your cousins had lost his life.
28
I've got absolutely no intention of ever going to play at another club.
29
I might be an ambassador.
30
I was always determined to make it as a footballer, but if things hadn't worked out, I'd have maybe followed my dad into the building industry.
31
If you don't play well, you have a bad game or a nightmare you know that the amount of coverage is worldwide.
32
In football, the hero and legend status is given out far too easily for me.
33
I have always applied myself the same for club and country.
34
This club is all about winning trophies and we've got a chance of bringing the greatest trophy of them all back to Anfield, so it means a great deal obviously.
35
I think every player listens out for his name being sung and it's something I really enjoy.
36
I share their frustration at times and I get down just like them when we suffer a bad result.
37
I'm playing second fiddle to Justin Bieber - Bieber Fever is sweeping our house, and my girls have made it clear I'm no longer their favourite man.
