Aaron Lennon has expressed his belief that Steven Gerrard stands out among the legendary midfielders of his era, compared to Frank Lampard and Paul Scholes. He emphasizes Gerrard's ability to control the game from the midfield and describes him as a true match-winner for Liverpool. While fans of Chelsea and Manchester United have their preferences for Lampard and Scholes, respectively, Lennon's perspective underscores Gerrard's unique influence in critical game situations, which has solidified his status as one of football's greats.
For me, it was Stevie. Without a question. For me, he had everything and he's one of the best players I've ever played with. I've never seen players be able to just pick the game up and just run the whole game from the middle of the field.
His ability to turn games around for Liverpool during times of adversity turned him into one of the icons of the game, and it is hardly a surprise that Lennon has chosen him as the best out of the three English midfielders.
