Liverpool ace Steven Gerrard hit the headlines when the 34-year-old captain’s brace fired the Reds to a 2-1 victory over Wimbledon.
The midfielder, who is set to leave Anfield in summers, scored a stunning goal with a close-range header at Kingsmeadow.
Here are the best reactions from the professionals tweeting their thoughts as Gerrard scored twice after Liverpool edge past Wimbledon.
If Gerrard was one of the new signings at 24 we’d be raving about him, but we judge him at 34 against himself at his peak.

Liverpool should have learnt from Chelsea with Lampard. Have to keep players like Gerrard until the end like United with Scholes & Giggs
