The former Aston Villa manager deserves credit for the job he did at Rangers but his generation is yet to make its mark in coaching
Gerrard will take his dismissal badly. He is an intense, deep individual and unlikely to see silver linings from being so unceremoniously dispensed with. The 42-year-old has cause to ponder, or fear, what options will be available next. It is wholly realistic that Gerrard may have to rebuild in the Championship; a league which offers no guarantees.
Gerrard’s tenure was longer but barely more successful. He won 12 of 38 Premier League games. The capitulation at Fulham leaves Villa one place outside the relegation zone. Seven goals have been scored in the team’s opening 11 league games. There are mitigating factors – the poor form of Philippe Coutinho and injuries to Lucas Digne, Diego Carlos and Boubacar Kamara – but Gerrard had known for some time his was a precarious position.
