Why Steven Gerrard could hold key to Liverpool beating Man City to title on final day
Gerrard's sole professional focus on Sunday will be to get the result at City that will round off a topsy-turvy season of transition and early rebuilding at Villa Park.
. It was the catalyst for Brendan Rodgers' team blowing their lead at the last moment, leaving Manchester City as the beneficiaries.It is the stuff of nightmares for City. The stuff of romance for Liverpool. And one big point of difference is they are facing Gerrard the manager trying to build something at Villa. This is not Gerrard the world-class midfielder and inspirational leader with the ability to shape a game single-handedly.
In 2012, it was the last-minute Sergio Aguero goal that beat Queens Park Rangers to edge out Manchester United on goal difference and bring the title back to Manchester City for the first time in 44 years. City will have cautious confidence they can finish off the job to claim one major prize from a season where they have had to pull themselves together following another devastating Champions League demise, losing a semi-final to Real Madrid that they had in their hands in the 90th minute of the second leg at the Bernabeu.
