One of the greatest Liverpool players ever, the Scouser loved playing against his Manc counterparts whether that was United or City.

In the 23 games Stevie played against City, he had 14 goal involvements, 10 of which were assists.

In the majority of the games Gerrard played against City, it tended to be a unimportant affair, however towards the end of his time in England City were coming up due to the takeover and the games became more important.

Highlight Moment:

In March in the 2012/13 season, Liverpool faced Man City at the Etihad in Brendan Rodgers' first season.

In the first half, Stevie setup up new signing Daniel Sturridge for a fantastic strike from outside the box.

Then in the second half Stevie took things into his own hands, after a poor clearance from Gael Clichy, he took the ball down with his chest and then unleashed a half-volley with pinpoint accuracy, into the bottom left hand corner of Joe Hart’s net.
