When Steven Gerrard speaks, Liverpool listens.
Following today’s performance, the Reds legend sent a crystal-clear message that has instantly sparked debate among fans and pundits — and it wasn’t subtle.
Gerrard believes Liverpool have found something special… and there should be no turning back.
“He Needs to Start Every Game From Now On”
Reacting to the performance, Gerrard didn’t hesitate in delivering his verdict:
> “He needs to start every game from now on. He was absolutely perfect, the way he plays is out of this world. He has to start ahead of his counterpart because he brings something different, and I’m convinced he will do very well.”
That’s not praise — that’s instruction.
For a man who defined standards at Anfield, calling a performance “absolutely perfect” is as strong an endorsement as it gets.
A Performance That Changed the Conversation
This wasn’t just another solid outing. It was the kind of display that forces a rethink in the manager’s plans.
From his intelligence on the ball to his decision-making under pressure, the Liverpool star offered something that simply couldn’t be ignored. He didn’t just fit into the system — he elevated it.
Gerrard’s key point was telling: he brings something different.
That difference was visible in:
His composure in tight spaces
His ability to control tempo
His bravery to take responsibility
His impact without needing the spotlight
Start Him. No Debate.
Perhaps the most striking part of Gerrard’s message was the direct comparison. By stating that he should start ahead of his counterpart, the Liverpool icon made it clear this is no longer about rotation or potential — it’s about merit.
In elite football, performances like this demand continuity. Gerrard knows it. The fans see it. Now the decision sits firmly with the manager.
Anfield Icons Don’t Speak Lightly
Gerrard has never been one for empty praise. If he’s convinced this player will “do very well,” it’s because he sees traits that translate to the highest level — consistency, personality, and hunger.
Those are the foundations of great Liverpool sides.
A Clear Message From a Legend 🔥
Start him.

Steven Gerrard has spoken — and at Anfield, words like these carry serious weight.
