England vs Germany without Steven Gerrard

Steven Gerrard is the Captain of English premier league club Liverpool and he is also an important member of English national team. England is going to face Germany next week on 22 August in Wembly stadium. It seems that Steven Gerrard will not be in the English national team. Steven Gerrard has suffered injury last week when his club Liverpool played against Toulouse. Liverpool won the match away at Toulouse but Steven Gerrard suffered a bad injury. Now, Liverpool is going to play against Chelsea on this Sunday. Liverpool manager has decided that Steven Gerrard will play in the match as it is a very big and important match for Liverpool club. However, if Steven Gerrard plays in this match against Chelsea then he can not take part in the match between England and Germany.


Steven Gerrard is already some injured. Thus, the Liverpool coach is taking some risk by putting him to play in the match against Chelsea this Sunday. So, after that Steven Gerrard will need good rest to become ok. I know that England coach will not be happy about this matter as Steven Gerrard is a very important player for the national team and he is an influential midfield player. However, Steven Gerrard earns his living by playing for Liverpool in the premier league. In fact for two times Steven Gerrard has got the award of most valuable player in premier league and he has been awarded UEFA most valuable player 2. Steven Gerrard was also nominated for the Fifa Player of the Year award on 2005 and 2006. He did not become Fifa Player of the year but it shows that he is a great footballer. So, English fans will surely miss Steven Gerrard in the match against Germany.
