One is not from his birthplace but from where he want his burial place to be - Anonymous
Van Persie came back to the Emirates Stadium and scored. Chelsea won and
is still in the fight together with Man City and Everton. But this weekend was
special for a walking legend, for the legendary fans and for a whole city.
Steven Gerrard (32 years old) played his game number 600 with LFC, and was
awarded at Anfield, his home.
Gerrard started playing for Liverpool when he was just nine. He made his
Liverpool first-team debut in 1998. In October 2003 he was already the captain
after Sammy Hippya. In his almost 15 seasons, he had won almost all the
trophies he had played – FA Cup, Community Shield, Capital One Cup (previously
known as Football League Cup or Carling Cup), Premier League, UEFA Champions
League, UEFA Champions League and UEFA Super Cup. Actually, he is the only player that has scored in all the finals
Sadly, their team-mates couldn't help him to celebrate the figure with a
victory against Newcastle at home. In fact, the match started pretty bad for
Liverpool, as they arrived to the half-time losing 1-0 after a semi-volley of Yohan
Cabaye. Few minutes before that, Gerrard came close to scoring a wonder goal
from behind the half-line. Suarez levelled the score after a wonderful control on
his chest and taking the ball round Tim Krul to score.
After being eliminated in the Capital One Cup, Liverpool faces an
important week, where the captain has to show his best performance. Next
Thursday, in the UEFA Europa League against Anzhi, Liverpool can seal the pass
to the next round and next Sunday, against Chelsea at the domestic competition
to try not to fall deeper in the table.
