PETER CROUCH: Give Newcastle a swerve, Stevie! New Saudi owners MUST approach my awe-inspiring old mate Gerrard - but he is Liverpool's next manager in the making

The videos that filtered out of the Rangers dressing room when they won their first league title for a decade said everything about Steven Gerrard.

The unity and bond he created at Ibrox was so obvious. Typically, he was right in the middle of the celebrations, sliding across the floor.

Those clips made you want to be a part of that dressing room, part of what Stevie had built. There are some characters who pull everybody with them and that is a quality he has always possessed: an aura, the setting of standards.
