Liverpool fans have once again speculated that Steven Gerrard could be the man to replace Jurgen Klopp at Anfield after his Rangers team beat Celtic 1-0 in the Old Firm derby.
Gers were 19 points away from their fierce rivals thanks to the victory and remain the only undefeated team in the Scottish top flight with 20 wins and two draws in 22 matches.

After Klopp was able to reverse Bayern Munich’s dominance in Germany with Borussia Dortmund, Reds fans have argued that Gerrard is accomplishing similar feats at Ibrox.

“The club has been absolutely amazing to me throughout my playing career, I keep watching every game, my relationships are still very strong, I still have former teammates playing in the team and that’s where it is. Nothing more to really discuss about. that.
“People who say that … who knows? It is very difficult to predict the future.
