#8 Stevie G


Steven Gerrard is one of the best English players to ever don the Liverpool shirt. He is so incredible that even the soccer god himself, Zinedine Zidane, considers Stevie G one of the best footballers in the world. Gerrard is an intriguing individual because he has played with the same club, Liverpool FC, since signing his youth contract. One characteristic of his game that is truly remarkable is his ability to shoot from distance. Along with his physical skill set, Gerrard has an uncanny ability to lead by example. Now at age 30, the Liverpool captain has won it all, except the English Premier League. Unfortunately for him, it does not appear that this is the year he gets his hands on a league medal. Despite Liverpool's recent struggles in the league, Stevie has thrived individually in Merseyside and with the Three Lions. Look for him to dazzle many and continue to succeed for the Reds in coming years!
