Guthrie Gets That 'Gerrard Factor'
Danny Guthrie struck twice from midfield on Saturday - quoting Steven Gerrard as his inspiration. Guthrie has had limited opportunities in the heart of the Newcastle midfield due to the performances of Kevin Nolan and Alan Smith. But he wants to become the Steven Gerrard of the Toon engine room. Guthrie: “I’ve been at Liverpool with Gerrard, and, for me, he’s the best central midfielder in Europe. “You can only learn good things from him and I’d like to think that’s come into my game. You see him every day, and how he handles himself. He’s a top lad, and it was all good experience. “When I was growing up there was Scholes, Keane and Vieira. “As I got a bit older there was Lampard and Gerrard. “It was great to work with him and hopefully that can benefit me and Newcastle United.”
