In an exclusive interview with BALLGM Gerrard was asked to pick between several midfielders in a winner-stays-on game. At the start of the Qu0026amp;A, the icon picked Kobbie Mainoo over Leeds‘ Archie Gray, but in the next battle, he opted for Morgan Gibbs-White over the Manchester star. In the third question, Chelsea‘s Moises Caicedo replaced the Forest midfielder, but from there onwards, Gerrard sided with Mac Allister.

Gerrard picked Mac Aliister in his next five answers, as the Argentine got the nod over Caicedo, Bruno Guimaraes, Reds team-mate Gravenberch, compatriot Enzo Fernandez and star Declan Rice. However, when Mac Allister was pitted against talisman in the final round, the former midfielder said, “Has to be Rodri, Ballon d’Or.”

Mac Allister kicked off the new season with an assist in Liverpool’s opening-day win over and has played a key role in their perfect start across all competitions. Arne Slot’s side will be back in Premier League action away at on Saturday.
