Steven Gerrard has today committed his long-term future to Liverpool by signing an extension to his contract with the Reds.

 

The news completes a great 24 hours for the Anfield skipper, who signed his new deal at Melwood this afternoon after firing the winner in the first-leg of the Carling Cup semi-final at Manchester City last night.

 

 

 

"I'm very happy," said Gerrard today. "It's a very proud day for myself and my family.

 

"It comes on the back of a fantastic team performance last night when we got the result we were looking for. Hopefully we can finish the job off in two weeks time and take all of our magnificent fans down to Wembley for a day out.

 

"The contract extension coming the day after has been the icing on the cake so it has been a perfect 24 hours.

 

"This is the club I love and is the club I have supported since I was a young boy. I am living the dream as the captain of one of the biggest clubs in the world. I love coming to work every day and the experiences I have had since I was eight years of age and first signed for the club, I wouldn't change them for the world. To extend that and to hopefully have some more good times in a red shirt is what I want.

 

"There will be more highs and lows, there's no doubt about it as that's part and parcel of being a football player at a top club. The important thing is that you react well to the lows and experience more of the highs. I'm confident moving forward that the club is going in the right direction. We've got a fantastic team, we've got the right owners in place and the right team behind our team, so I'm really confident we'll have more good experiences in the future."

 

Gerrard has also agreed to take up an ambassadorial role at Liverpool Football Club once his illustrious playing career draws to a close.

 

"It's really flattering for me that the club have offered me the chance to stay when I eventually hang my boots up," he added. "Hopefully that will be in many years to come because I want to play for as long as I can.

 

"I'll know myself when it's time to hang my boots up and then hopefully I can stay involved with the club and set the right example for youngsters coming through."

 

 

 

 

 

Absolute legend.

 

Love him, absolutely love him.

He's been great since he's been back

Its interesting as well because in the past others have gone into their shell around Gerrard, but now people seem to be raising their game

Sweet. Don't want to mocker anything but he's looked really sharp since he's came back. Stay up there til Suarez is back and the pair of them could really kick us on.

Delighted to see this. Gone are the Parry days of uncertainty, sign him on for life I say.

 

So so glad he stayed back, can't imagine him playing alongside John 'R*****' Terry at the shaky bridge...

No need for that. I'm fed up gettinig into arguments with friends and colleagues who say the same about Suarez.
