Liverpool skipper Steven Gerrard believes that his successor to the Reds captain's armband should be goalkeeper Pepe Reina.
The England international feels that the 27-year-old Spaniard possesses all the qualities needed to be a good leader at Anfield.
Gerrard is also sure that time is on Reina's side as he is yet to reach his peak in goalkeeping terms.
"Pepe has proved this year that he is one of the best goalkeepers in the world," the midfielder told LFC Weekly.
"He's got a massive future here. He's a character and someone who is great to have around the dressing room.
"In training and on the pitch he's fantastic. He's always positive and helping his teammates. I can see a captain in him.
"As far as goalkeepers are concerned, he's still young. So I can see him captaining this club in the future.
"I certainly hope he does because he deserves it." |
