View from the manager, Steven Gerrard

"It’s a huge game. The win over Sunderland on Friday night was important because we wanted to set that clash up. If we’d have dropped points or lost the game, it wouldn’t have been as big as it is now, so credit to the lads, they’ve got a top-of-the-table clash to look forward to and as a 16, 17-year-old, why wouldn’t you want to play in that?”
