Steven Gerrard
In 2000, Steven Gerrard made his debut for England and it wasn’t until 2014 that he retired. He represented England 114 times and scored 21 times for his country. The now 38 year old is widely regarded as one of the greatest midfielders of his generation. And considering his time with Liverpool, that’s a fair assessment.
