Gerrard's already had his testimonial, I doubt we'd see him in a red shirt on the playing side again. He probably could do a job, just don't see it happening.
Not knocking you because it's a decent, feasible alternative.. I don't think there is a complete solution to solving the injury crisis that will work seamlessly, like a smooth transition. I think the injuries will be noticeable, we have to try to solve them though, even if Rossiter, chiri, and tex have a spell in the team. I like brannagan going forward, but I think we struggle to defend with him in the team. Would be handy if we could get a quick loan in perhaps.
