no wayyy!! souness is three times the player gerrard is.much better than gerrard.sounes is the greatest midfield player to ever play for lfc.he could dominate a game unlike gerrard.
gerrard is basicly a striker.hes useless in the center of midfield.

Gerrard is the best CM in the game, man. What pipe are you smoking? He has everything a box to box CM needs: vision, touch, creativity, deadly accurate passing, and a wicked long range shot.

totally agree and the greatest captain

I think Gerrard was better than souness and I have seen both. But its a tough call I just think Gerrard had more all round to his game and was more mobile. Gerrard was a lot better offensively and not as good as souness in the tackle but not much worse. So overall I would choose Gerrard. But my favourite of all was Barnes.

souey had much more than gerrard in he presence on the pitch , ok gerrard 2005 but what about A.S.Roma in 1984 bigger than 2005 souey the best

It is a tough call,it is also difficult to compare,would Gerrard have cut it in Soueys era? how many red cards would souey see it the modern game?

Very good point. I am not anti souness by the way he was one of the greats. Just in my view Gerrard slightly had the edge. I also feel players from older eras we give them more credit they seem to gain a mythical status over time.

I'm not sure I can make that call, but Stevie is my favorite player (though that doesn't necessarily mean the best). He has so many intangibles too: the never say die attitude, the ability to come through in the clutch, and the ability to lead and inspire. You can't be taught that. I was just saying that pictonclock calling Stevie useless in the midfield is inane.

I may not have seen Souness play, however I can tell you Gerrard is one of the greatest players of this genertaion.

but there is nothing mythical about souness and what he was and did .
