Jamie Carragher believes that Steven Gerrard is second only to King Kenny when it comes to being one of the all time Anfield greats. Carra respects Stevie as a player and a friend and believes he is the second best player to ever represent the club.

Carra says:

"I saw on Liverpoolfc.tv they were doing a poll on the 100 greatest Liverpool players," Carragher said. "In my opinion, Steven Gerrard is second only to Kenny Dalglish as the greatest to ever play for Liverpool.

"There have been many world class players like Graeme Souness in his position, and the list is a long one at Liverpool, but for what Stevie's achieved at such a young age, I can't believe too many others were better.

"If he can win a few league titles, he may even go beyond Kenny. I don't think there's any better compliment I can pay to him than that, but he's still younger now than Kenny was when he signed for Liverpool, so who knows what he can become?

"I suppose at the end of his career it will be the number of league titles he's won which will decide it, but people probably forget he's still only 25, so he's got a lot of time to win more trophies."
