He's just like him! Meet Liverpool's next Steven Gerrard

A new Liverpool wonderkid very much looks like the next Steven Gerrard.

Liverpool’s former number eight perfectly embodied what it meant to wear the shirt.

He was a leader, a fighter, and someone capable of moments of genuine brilliance. Few midfielders have ever blended strength, skill, and emotion in quite the same way, which is why he became such an iconic figure at Anfield.

What made him truly special was his ability to impact every part of the game. He could win tackles, dictate play, surge forward with purpose, and lift those around him when it mattered most.

Time and again, he seemed to carry the team through difficult spells almost on his own. His leadership spoke for itself, but it was his spectacular moments that really captured the imagination.

There was a unique excitement whenever he struck the ball from distance. His technique was clean yet powerful, turning long-range efforts into something that looked almost natural even though they were superhuman. Whether it was a thunderous drive or a curling effort from well outside the box, he had a remarkable ability to score from range.

And those goals came at crucial moments. Whether in crucial league fixtures or unforgettable European nights, or cup finals.

When you're a midfielder in Liverpool's academy you're always going to earn comparisons to the great man.

How many have there been over the years who were dubbed the next Gerrard?

Jordan Lussey, Jay Spearing, Adam Phillips, Herbie Kane, Jordan Rossiter, and there are probably a few names we are forgetting as well.
