BBC label Gerrard 'Liverpool manager' during live coverage of Aston Villa game

Aston Villa defeated Crystal Palace 2-1 on Saturday and BBC's Match of the Day made a telling error when covering the game.

As the Villa boss was speaking to the press after the match, BBC used the caption 'Steven Gerrard, Liverpool manager' to refer to the Lions head coach.

We can assure you that the 41-year-old has not replaced Klopp yet but not many fans doubt it will happen sooner or later.

Before the game, Gerrard dismissed the talk of the Villa job being a part of the plan to become Liverpool manager.

"Very unfair. You'll never hear me say it's a stepping stone. I'm really honoured and proud," he said.

"This press conference shouldn't be anything other than Aston Villa. Everyone knows what Liverpool means to me, and I said last week in a one-to-one that I’m all in."
