Steven Gerrard has had an interesting last 3-4 months. From being on the verge of lifting the league trophy to travel to Brazil to captain the Three Lions to their worst ever outing in a FIFA World Cup, the midfielder has gone through a lot. After all this, he was surely in need of going on a short holiday and he has done exactly that.
He is in Ibiza at the moment spending some time with his wife and his kids. In some of his recent photographs that have been uploaded on websites, he is looking relaxed and rejuvenated which is a good thing at least for his club Liverpool. The Reds would certainly need their captain at his best next season if they have to get close to the league glory again.
Gerrard’s personal performance in both the Premier League as well as in the World Cup was brilliant last season. Yes, he made a slight mistake in the World Cup group game against Uruguay which led to that second Luis Suarez goal, but, apart from that, he was flawless.
Despite that, at the end of the season, he found himself empty handed and that would have left him frustrated.
The kind of guy Gerrard is; he doesn’t like to bring out his frustration in public. He is very calm and collected.
But, in the interviews that he has given after that World Cup debacle, he has looked deeply hurt and rightly so because the time is almost running out for him to win a big tournament.
There is no doubt that the player of his calibre deserves silverwares. He has been a true legend of the game having made close to 500 English top tier appearances along with 114 international appearances.
