Aston Villa: Why Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard is heading back to Anfield next weekend on a high

For Liverpool and England, Steven Gerrard was always a player who could change games. Now he is doing the same as Aston Villa's manager.

Sunday's win over Leicester was Gerrard's third in his first four matches at Villa, following a narrow defeat by defending champions Manchester City on Wednesday. He's made an amazing start to life as a Premier League boss, but I am not surprised at all.

I said when he got the job that I thought he was ready and would be a success, because of the job he did at Rangers. He put his own stamp on the club when he was at Ibrox, and he is already doing the same at Villa.
