Speaking on Redmen TV, Neil Jones admitted he was surprised Gerrard’s name hasn’t been mentioned for the job.

“I am a little bit surprised, maybe a little bit surprised that we haven’t seen Steven being positioned or even positioning himself a little bit and sort of saying well you know don’t forget about me,” Jones said.

“Okay, you can accept I had a bad time at Villa and I went to Saudi Arabia and it’s a little bit out of sight to the main stream.

I’d be surprised if he hasn’t people wouldn’t be doing their jobs if someone hasn’t said to him at one of his team’s games would you be interested.

“But yeah you’d think if the was 18 months to two years ago every story would have been Steven Gerrard to Liverpool.

And I am a little bit surprised at that even and maybe that tells you a little bit about how quickly things change in management.”

On the surface, it may not be a surprise that much of a surprise to not see his name linked considering Gerrard didn’t have a great time at Aston Villa and he is managing in Saudi Arabia now.
