Please @LFC re-sign Steven Gerrard until end of season so that he can win league and have EPL Medal with Liverpool as a gesture of appreciation for his service at Liverpool. He can play few games.

After Liverpool’s victory against Southampton on Saturday, followed by Manchester City’s 2-0 defeat against Tottenham Hotspur, fans now demand the signing of former Anfield star Steven Gerrard. Gerrard is presently the manager of Rangers FC.
Liverpool fans wish to see Steven Gerrard play atleast four or five matches for Jurgen Klopp so that he could get his hands on the Premier League title. Their motive is to help Gerrard get over his infamous slip in 2013-14 season, which cost Liverpool the domestic title. Though Gerrard led Liverpool to a Champions League title in 2005, surprisingly he has never won a Premier League title in his career.

Liverpool edge closer to their first Premier League title
On Saturday, Liverpool scored four past Southampton as Jurgen Klopp’s men inched closer to clinching their first-ever Premier League title since the inception of the competition. The Reds were further delighted after back-to-back Premier League Champions Manchester City had to suffer a humiliating defeat against Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday.
Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool have a 22-point lead in Premier League
Liverpool are likely to win the Premier League away at Everton or Manchester City, however, they would not receive the trophy before May 9. The European Champions have a massive 22-point lead over second-placed Manchester City and will next play against Shrewsbury in FA Cup on Tuesday night (Wednesday IST).
