Gerrard is certainly overrated. He only gets the plaudits for Liverpool as he's, like, their one decent player and they build everything around him. Watch him play for England and argh it's just kick, run, shoot. No tactics or thought put into his play really. Some of his runs are good, but that's it. I think Gerrard is the type of player who needs space to attack. He can carry the ball well and his ball striking technique is excellent but put him under pressure in a tight spot and he'll struggle. Surely a "world class" central midfielder should be comfortable on the ball in every situation, not just when there's a gap to run into?
