If he did, then he had an even better game than I originally thought. I'm still stunned that everyone's going on about that level of performance from him but forgetting his broken toe. The early tackle on Mikel was fucking ace.

There were two incidents involving Torres and Terry, one in either half. The first one Gerrard got involved in but I think by the time the second one happened he'd decided the new boy was more than capable of looking after himself.
Gerrard's post match interview was both brilliant and irritating. He did really well with the Styles stuff, making a twat of him without actually calling him one. As has been pointed out he let himself down with his demand to play in the middle tho. But I would point out that post-match interviews literally seconds after you've just come off after a game like that are never gonna be straightforward and it must be easy to find yourself saying things you wouldn't usually.
