Steven Gerrard was arrested on a night out, blown out of proportion by the press as usual, Stevie G is NOT a Joey Barton type believe me. The lad takes a lot of stick and abuse on the pitch with Man Utd and Everton fans in particular , shouting disgusting remarks about his wife and children - I�ve heard it ! He does not retaliate, he can�t afford to.
So he�s on a night out, apparently enjoying himself buying champagne for a girl celebrating her 18th birthday, posing for photos with people, he asks for a particular song to be played, the Man Utd card carrying DJ tells him to Pxxx Off and shoves him in the chest - all hell breaks loose as Steven�s mates jump to his aid��end of story. Hopefully as he�s never been in any trouble before he will get a caution.
As to forthcoming Liverpool games, if Steven is seeking a reassuring precedent he need only look at the time Sir Alex Ferguson had to collect a hungover Roy Keane from Bootle Street police station in Manchester - four days before the 1999 FA Cup final. United won that Cup Final and hopefully we will go on to win the league !.
