Toure: Basel clash perfect for Steven Gerrard
Kolo Toure believes Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard will shine against Basel on Tuesday, when Anfield plays host to a crucial Champions League group stage clash.
Gerrard was rested for Saturday’s draw with Sunderland, but Toure believes the midfielder will return in style: “He makes a difference, if I can say he makes the magic when nobody can make it, that’s why he is one of the best players in the world.”
“His age is nothing, for me it doesn’t matter. People just keep talking, but if you have a player like that in your dressing room he is very important. With his experience, he makes a difference.”
