Liverpool youngster Spearing grateful for Gerrard guidance

Liverpool midfielder Jay Spearing admits he's learning plenty working with skipper Steven Gerrard.

Spearing admits he's grateful to Gerrard for taking him under his wing.

Spearing told liverpoolfc.tv: "He's one of the greatest midfielders in the world, and I can't thank him enough for what he's done for me over the years.

"He took me under his wing from the moment I came up from the Academy. He talks to me quite a bit in training sessions. In games, like against Napoli, he had a quiet word with me and said, 'Let's get everyone going and get the game won."
