Stevie Gee !!
Steven Gerrard today spoke of his delight after being awarded an
M.B.E. in the Queen's New Year's Honours list.
The Liverpool captain has been rewarded for his contribution to
football, which has included leading the Reds to Champions League
and FA Cup glory in the space of twelve months.
Despite admitting he was thrilled to receive the personal
recognition, he was quick to pay tribute to all those who have
helped him throughout his career.
I am absolutely thrilled and honoured to receive this recognition
for playing a game Ive loved all my life, Gerrard said.
Id like to accept this on behalf of all those people who have
been so supportive to me throughout my career, all my team-mates
over the years, everyone at Liverpool Football Club, everyone at
Team England, all my family and friends and all those coaches who
have helped me since I was 8.
