Steven Gerrard is set to miss a crucial phase of Liverpool’s season after tweaking his hamstring during the victory over Tottenham Hotspur.
Liverpool’s captain came off in the second half of a 3-2 win that has bolstered his side’s hopes of qualifying for the Champions League but is now almost certain to miss the next Barclays Premier League fixture at Southampton on February 22.
Gerrard is also set to be ruled out of this weekend’s FA Cup tie against Crystal Palace and probably the Europa League last-32 assignment against Besiktas. Liverpool hope the 34-year-old will be available to face Manchester City on March 1.
It is another headache for manager Brendan Rodgers, who only 48 hours earlier discovered that Lucas Leiva will miss between four to six weeks with a damaged thigh.
Better news, though, is the sustained improvement in Daniel Sturridge’s fitness and the England striker took another step in the right direction against Tottenham. – Daily Mail
