A unique record in finals and the Merseyside derby master - Gerrard's career in Opta numbers
After Steven Gerrard chose to hang up his boots, Opta help us to examine the career of a Liverpool and England great.
Steven Gerrard announced his retirement from professional football on Thursday, bringing to a close a long and decorated career with Liverpool and England.
A Champions League, FA Cup, League Cup and UEFA Cup winner with a unique record in finals, he is one of his country's most-capped players, behind only David Beckham, Wayne Rooney and Peter Shilton.
The former Liverpool captain also boasts one of the proudest records as a one-club man in the Premier League era.
With the help of Opta, we look at the numbers that matter most to the hero of Istanbul.
504 - Steven Gerrard is one of only 12 players to have made 500 or more appearances in the Premier League, making 504 in total.
2 - All those 504 appearances came for Liverpool – only two players have made more Premier League appearances for a single club: Ryan Giggs (632 for Man Utd) and Jamie Carragher (508 for Liverpool).
