Steven George Gerrard MBE (born 30 May 1980) is an English professional football manager and former player who manages Scottish Premiership club Rangers.
He spent the majority of his playing career as a central midfielder for Liverpool, with most of that time spent as club captain, as well as captaining the England national team. Widely regarded as one of the greatest midfielders of all time,
Gerrard was awarded the UEFA Club Footballer of the Year award in 2005, and the Ballon d'Or Bronze Award. In 2009, Zinedine Zidane and Pelé said that they considered Gerrard to be the best footballer in the world.
Argentine tough nut Nicolas Otamendi insists he’s licking his lips at the prospect of another Europa League run-in with Rangers - three years after seeing red against them in Lisbon.Benfica defender Otamendi was on the receiving end of a straight red card the time the two sides met at the Stadium Light in a thrilling 3-3 draw.
And the World Cup winner says he is relishing the prospect of some more rough and tumble against the Ibrox outfit on Thursday night, as they go head-to-head again for a place in the quarter finals.Former Manchester City firebrand Otamendi said: “I know British football and I know that Rangers will be a very physical game for us – and those are the games I get excited by.
We have studied them and they also have players who can play very good attacking football – so it would not be respectful to just call them a team that are physical.
They can do both, that is why we will be treating them with big respect.”Otamendi was sent packing for bringing down Ryan Kent the last time the two clubs clashed in the competition in November 2020.
