Liverpool skipper to return for Fulham clash

Gerrard has been out of action for the past months after tearing his hamstring while away on international duty with England in November.

“It’d be a massive lift to have him back,” said Liverpool goalkeeper Pepe Reina.

“He’s a key player for us and when he’s in the team it’s much easier for us.

“The confidence and the commitment he gives to this club – you have to drag yourself to the level of his passion.”
