2. What it means to Steven Gerrard

I was rather moved at Gerrard's reaction after the win over Man City on Sunday. I've always thought of him as rather robotic and too detached to be a real leader. I've changed my mind after this weekend.

If anybody doesn't know, Gerrard's 10 year old cousin - whom he was very close too - was one of the ones who died at Hillsborough that day. He himself was 8 or 9 and thus old enough to remember it clearly.

It would be just so wrong if Liverpool don't win the title this year after this. Especially if Chelsea were to win it. That would be so wrong.
