'I miss a bit of cold weather' - Gerrard eyes return to Liverpool 'sooner rather than later'

The LA Galaxy midfielder is already setting his sights on working at the club he spent the vast majority of his career once again.

STEVEN GERRARD SAYS he will return to Liverpool “sooner rather than later” despite enjoying his time at LA Galaxy.

The 35-year-old has started his first full season in California having joined the MLS side halfway through the 2015 campaign on an 18-month contract.

But Gerrard is already thinking about returning to England and settling back in Liverpool at some stage in the not-too-distant future.

“I will be going home at some point,” the midfielder said at a Galaxy fans’ question and answer session.

“Sooner rather than later I will return to where I’m comfortable with my people – and that’s Liverpool.

“I miss going to the games. I spent 35 years in Liverpool. Liverpool’s my home, it always will be. This is my second home for a short period of time.

I miss my friends and my family. I miss a bit of cold weather. I’m getting on a little bit now so eventually we’ll move back and settle in Liverpool.”

Gerrard, though, has enjoyed being away from the spotlight while playing in the United States.

He continued: “Obviously the city’s a fantastic city for myself and my family, the climate, there’s plenty to do. I’m pretty much unnoticed as well, which is a bonus.

“I don’t want to start any unnecessary rumours. I’m really happy where I am at the moment. But I’m sure somewhere down the line I will represent Liverpool Football Club.”

Gerreard scored in the Galaxy’s 4-2 win over New England Revolution last night, while Robbie Keane capped his return to the team with two goals:
