Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher backs Tony Hibbert for freedom of city

He may have bowed out without winning a Premier League title, but it looks like Steven Gerrard still managed to make a decent enough fist of his career to earn the freedom of the city of Liverpool.

Gerrard's name was put forward by the Mayor of Liverpool himself, Joe Anderson, after the long-serving Reds captain called time on his playing days last November.
