His status as a has long been assured, but Steven Gerrard is now further burnishing that reputation with his feats as the club's under-18 coach. The 37-year-old former captain has made an oustanding start to his role nurturing the next generation of Anfield talent and will certainly reflect with satisfaction on his first few months in charge. Liverpool currently top the Northern Division of the Under-18, remaining unbeaten after 11 games, and they also topped their group in the continental UEFA Youth League competition. 1.6k shares All told, and including the FA Youth Cup and the Under-18 Premier League Cup, Gerrard's side have lost just one of 21 competitive matches so far this season. Gerrard took on an all-round role at the club's Kirkby academy back in February before being appointed under-18 boss after Neil Critchley made the step up to the under-23s. It was sold to Gerrard as being the chance to implement his own ideas and philosophy, something the former midfielder embraced from the outset. As befitting such an industrious player, Gerrard has gone about his new job with an obsessive eye for detail, especially when it comes for tactics.

He started the season switching between a 4-4-2 diamond and a 4-2-3-1, but has more recently opted for a 3-4-3, a change that has produced some of the side's best performances.

As he said back in September: 'You play against different tactics, different formations - a different style.' Against Maribor in October, for example, Gerrard did his homework and ensured his team could counter their long ball approach. They won 4-1. Against Sevilla the following month, the Reds started the game with a high-tempo press and then sat back to counter once they had a lead.

They won 4-0. In the game with Spartak at home, the Russian side were always going to be hard to break down, but Liverpool still won 2-0. The only time Liverpool have come unstuck this season was away to Spartak Moscow, when they were defeated 2-1, but that didn't ultimately affect their qualification chances. In an interview with BT Sport earlier this year, Gerrard offered a small insight into the standards he expects from his players despite their inexperience. Gerrard's Liverpool team have lost just one of 21 competitive matches so far this season 'You have to be obsessed,' he said.

'I love talent and I love seeing it, but the important thing is they need to understand the other side of the game. 'Fighting, winning, tackling.

Going where it hurts, letting your lungs burn, really digging deep. 'The end of games when young kids want to give up, you can’t do that at Premier League level or Champions League level so, for me, just as important as talent is the other side of the game.' Gerrard will see a reflection of himself in such qualities and there was no better example than in their league match at Manchester United in freezing conditions this month. Despite going down to 10 men when Adam Lewis was sent off on 27 minutes, and already trailing 1-0, Liverpool battled back to lead thanks to goals from Liam Millar and Glen McAuley.

Only a 94th-minute equaliser by United's Arnau Puigmal denied Liverpool what would have been a remarkable victory.

In September, Gerrard identified that he could build his team around Jones and the teenager hasn't disappointed. Employee Counseling Forms Free Download more. Norwegian midfielder Edvard Tagseth provides the steel needed to free Jones further up the field, while Lewis has taken on the responsibilities of the captaincy in his stride. If Gerrard continues this impressive start to coaching life, the offers will inevitably flood in. But as a proud one-club man, Gerrard may well view being trusted with Liverpool's future as the most important job of all.
