Famous Politician | Steven Gerrard Keen on Retaining England Captaincy

THE LATEST SPORTS NEWS – Just like a famous politician would, Liverpool midfielder and England captain Steven Gerrard said that he wants to keep the captaincy of the national team.

Wayne Rooney, who sub-captained for England as they played past through rival minnows San Marino 5-0 in the 2014 World Cup qualifiers, earlier expressed his desire to become captain of The Three Lions someday.

Gerrard, who is on his way to his 99th cap for England, said that he is “really enjoying the role” of being the captain. He noted that Rooney has to wait first as he himself waited for a long time to become captain.
