Liverpool FC letters: Steven Gerrard merits the England captain’s armband too

03 February 2010 00:10
BESIDES John Terry , the only other logical leaders in the England squad are Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard.[LNB]If Fabio Capello had to choose between them, I believe he won't lose any sleep over deciding Stevie G is the best option.[LNB]This is because of his current incomparable leadership quality that he displays in a red shirt.[LNB]One classic example of this is Istanbul in 2005.[LNB]He single-handedly brought Liverpool back to life in that game, not only with his headed goal but with his rallying call to his teammates and the crowd.[LNB]Let the living legend lead![LNB]bobby[LNB]IT'S good to see that people remember that Rafa Benitez is a person with a family, with feelings and needs, so that any problems or changes in his situation will affect them all.[LNB]Saturday's game against Bolton showed just how the newcomers are getting to know their teammates' ways. The result overall was much better than the final scoreline suggests.[LNB]The defence, especially Pepe Reina and the towering Sotirios Kyrgiakos, with Jamie Carragher playing right-back and on the right wing, showed how they are working together.[LNB]Steven Gerrard in the last 20 minutes came to life and showed just how he is recovering and just what we have been missing.[LNB]David Ngog needs a few extra jam butties to give him more weight and power to add to his speed.[LNB]John Lester, Birkenhead
