Rickie Lambert "desperate" to see Steven Gerrard sign new Liverpool deal

Rickie Lambert claims that everyone at Liverpool is "desperate" to see Steven Gerrard sign a new contract.

Rickie Lambert has admitted that he is "desperate" to see Steven Gerrard sign a new contract with Liverpool.

Despite a new deal being on the table, there has been speculation that Gerrard could decide to leave Anfield at the end of the season, but Lambert believes that his captain needs to commit his future to the club.

"I think I am speaking for everyone involved in Liverpool that we are desperate to keep Stevie," the striker is quoted as saying by The Mirror.

"It's clear that it's his decision and the club's decision but I think he needs to stay at Liverpool for the rest of his life - that's my opinion.

"Stevie is his own man, but he is Mister Liverpool. I am enjoying playing with him, very much so, after years of watching him, and long may it continue."

Gerrard has made 688 appearances for Liverpool since being handed his debut in 1998.
