"Liverpool" club received bad news - captain Steven Gerrard will not be able to help the team during the festive period. The experienced footballer injured his hamstring in the match against "West Ham" and will be unable to play for about a month. The loss of the 33-year-old midfielder came at a difficult moment for the club. In the next four matches, the "Reds" will have to play against strong teams like "Tottenham," "Manchester City" and "Chelsea." This is another headache for manager Brendan Rodgers, as he will also be without the injured striker Daniel Sturridge. S.Gerrard has been instrumental for the "Liverpool" team this season - in 15 matches, the Englishman scored 3 goals and made 6 assists.
