Liverpool are goners now that Gerrard has been ruled out for three weeks
Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard lasted just a quarter of an hour of his side's 1-0 defeat against Everton in the FA Cup last night. The England international was taken off with a suspected hamstring injury and has now been ruled out for at least three weeks leaving Liverpool's chances of winning their first ever Premier League title in serious doubt.
As we all know by now, Liverpool without Gerrard are just not the same. Without the 28-year old they lack motivation and lets be honest they only look half as good.
Rafa Benitez will now be without Gerrard for the games against Portsmouth, Manchester City and the side's Champions League encounter with Real Madrid later this month.
A spokesman for the club had this to say : "A scan today has confirmed a tear in the hamstring of Steven's left leg. He will be out of action for about three weeks." Personally, I think even with Gerrard in the side Liverpool will find it very difficult to catch Manchester United at the top of the Premier League.
It will be interesting to see how they cope without their inspirational leader this Saturday when they face Portsmouth at Fratton Park. What do you think?
