STEVEN GERRARD has completed a century of goals in a Liverpool shirt – but which ones stand out from the rest?

Liverpool v West Ham United, FA Cup Final, May 2006: There aren’t many players that have had an FA Cup final named after them, yet Gerrard was wholly deserving of the accolade for his efforts in Cardiff.

Hardly surprising, given the manner in which he’d followed a first equaliser with an injury-time second courtesy of a 30-yard screamer having seconds earlier been struggling to even find the energy to walk.

Best FA Cup final goal ever? Only Ricky Villa runs it close. Best Gerrard goal ever? Without doubt.

AC Milan v Liverpool, Champions League Final, May 2005: By no means the most technically accomplished of his century, but easily the most inspiring.

Gerrard doesn’t score many headers, but when he leapt to meet John Arne Riise’s left-wing cross, stretching every sinew in his neck to gain the necessary power to beat Milan keeper Dida, it gave Liverpool belief at 3-1 that maybe, just maybe, the European Cup wasn’t out of reach just yet.

Liverpool v Olympiakos, Champions League group game, December 2004: Many Evertonians have never forgiven Andy Gray for his uncharacteristically enthusiastic response to this strike. But who could blame him?

With Liverpool six minutes from dropping into the UEFA Cup, Gerrard’s controlled thunderbolt provided the springboard for a fifth European Cup triumph and Rafael Benitez’s fledgling Anfield tenure.

Liverpool v Southampton, Premier League, January 2001: Long-range blockbusters have become Gerrard’s trademark, but this was one of the very first and still one of the very best.
