Steven Gerrard Premier League Hall of Fame



Rangers manager, Steven Gerrard, has become the latest former player to be inducted into the Premier League Hall of Fame.

The Liverpool legend recently won the Scottish Premiership with Rangers FC, guiding them to successfully complete an invincible season by remaining unbeaten.

The former lanky player finished the season with 100-points for the first time in the club’s history to end the dominance of rivals Celtic – who were bidding for a 10th consecutive Scottish Premiership crown.

Described as the “driving force in Liverpool’s midfield for 17 years, Gerrard inspired his teammates with surging runs, pinpoint passes, talismanic tackles and spectacular strikes, scoring 120 goals and providing 92 assists in the competition,” Premier League said.

The former Liverpool captain joins Alan Shearer, Thierry Henry, Eric Cantona, Roy Keane, Frank Lampard and Dennis Bergkamp in receiving the League’s highest individual honour.

Gerrard made 504 appearances for the Reds, scoring 120 goals and registering 92 assists. He also won six Monthly awards in his Anfield career that spanned between 1998 and 2015, all for Liverpool.

He is one of only two players to make at least 500 appearances for the club in the competition, along with Jamie Carragher (508).

Gerrard is one of six players from a 23-man shortlist inducted into the Hall of Fame after receiving the most combined votes from the public and the Premier League Panel.
