After playing for 120 minutes today I hope he doesn't play the full 90 for England on Wednesday - There is no question of him pulling out with the captaincy up for grabs (unlike the man u players) but lets hope Pearce uses him wisely, he's not that long back after a considerable time out

Can't see him playing more then 60 or maybe even only a half pearse looks like he wants to try a few players

Yeah he is expected to be captain so will start, but will probably only play 45 mins, 60 at the most.

There's clearly not something not quite right with our skipper. The club, nor Kenny, will ever tell us; we are not entitled to know, we are mere fans. I for one expected more of my skipper. He didn't produce the goods. jimmyTheRed

Gerrard has been quite mediocre, hate to say it.
We've been building teams around him for the last 12 years, I fear that ethos has now ran its course.
For that matter I feel Shelvey & Hendo are still miles away filling his boots, so if we could bring a quality winger & a striker of top quality (Cavani & Hazard), and with Lucas back, could be a short term solution.
There aren't many players like the Gerrard of young lying about
