JAMIE CARRAGHER is delighted that Steven Gerrard will join him in Liverpool's 500 club at Ewood Park today.[LNB]While Gerrard is set to make the landmark appearance for Liverpool this afternoon, Carragher is just four games away from hitting 600 and is sure the Reds captain will go on to reach that milestone and beyond.[LNB]'To be honest there's not much more I can say about Stevie that hasn't already been said,' admitted Carragher.[LNB]'Not many players get to 500 games for one club. I've been very lucky to do it in my career. It's a magnificent milestone.[LNB]'I think there's still a lot more in Stevie's locker, probably a couple more hundred games for the club.[LNB]'When he finishes he'll go down alongside Kenny Dalglish as one of the greatest players to play for the club. Like Kenny was in his day, Stevie is a symbol for the club.[LNB]'It will be a sad day when he hangs up his boots, especially when you consider just how long he's been here and what he's helped us achieve.[LNB]'To get to 500 games is a fantastic achievement but, as I say, there's plenty more to come from him.'[LNB]Should he figure in each of the next four games, including today, Carragher will make his 600th Liverpool appearance against Wigan at Anfield later this month.
