Graeme Souness feels Steven Gerrard is Liverpool's greatest player.

Souness played alongside Kenny Dalglish, widely regarded to be the club's greatest player, but the former Reds manager believes Gerrard has a justifiable claim to assume that honour.

"It's not a comparison I could make," he told a Hall of Fame event at Hampden Park.

"Kenny would be the first to tell you he played in a better team than Steven Gerrard has ever played in at Liverpool and Kenny was surrounded by better players than Steven Gerrard has been surrounded by in his time at Liverpool."
