Steven Gerrard watches Liverpool Under 18s draw with West Ham at Kirkby Academy

All eyes on Merseyside are on the derby between Liverpool and Everton on Saturday, but Steven Gerrard had other things on his mind on Friday night.

The academy coach watched on as Liverpool Under 18s were held to a 1-1 draw by West Ham in Kirkby.

The 36-year-old rejoined his old club in February to take up a coaching role and has been a regular fixture in the dugout at the academy ever since.
