‘Bellingham is an obvious one (for Liverpool),’ said Gerrard. ‘I’m a huge fan and Liverpool lack this running number eight who arrives in the box and gets you a goal. Bellingham ticks all those boxes.

‘Though Liverpool have been mid-table this season, Jude is bright enough to know they reach finals, have one of the best managers in the world and develop players.

‘All he needs to do is send me his diary, I’ll fly to Dortmund and take him out to dinner and bring him back.’

Gerrard, sacked by Aston Villa earlier this season, admitted missing the game. ‘When you arrive at the stadium and see the pitch, you get that feel and I won’t ever lose that,’ he said.
