'Knowing Jurgen, he won't want to be put in that bracket,' Gerrard told
The Athletic. 'I know what he's like, he's humble and respectful.
'When you look at the scale of the job he's done, for sure he deserves to be mentioned in the same breath as those iconic managers.
'What you need to take into consideration is that when Jurgen took over Liverpool they weren't close to being the best team in the country, they weren't even in the top four.
'To come to Liverpool and deliver the first league title after 30 years…
'For me, someone like Jurgen should be rewarded now. It seems like in football we often wait until people get older before their achievements are fully recognised.
'But I know the owners of Liverpool won't let that happen. When Jurgen delivers the league they should already be starting work on a statue of him.'
