Gerrard: It's going to be unbelievableLiverpool skipper Steven Gerrard has talked of his excitement to have seen the plans for the new 60,000 seat club stadium in Stanley Park.
"The prospect of this was one of the major factors in me signing a long-term deal with the club and I just hope I'm still around when the day comes for us to play our first game in it," said Gerrard.
"The fact a massive Kop stand will be incorporated into the new stadium is great.
"After five minutes looking at the plans I was completely blown away by it. It is amazing and the best thing about it is that it is so different to any other.
"We will have our own identity stamped all over this stadium and that is how it should be.
"We are Liverpool Football Club, we expect the best and this will be the best.
"As a supporter myself, I know what to look for in a stadium and I'm sure all our fans are going to love it.
"We all know the level of noise 40,000 Liverpudlians can make at Anfield so I can't even begin to describe what 60,000-plus can do inside the new stadium.
"It's going to be unbelievable and I can't wait to lead the team out there."
"The fact a massive Kop stand will be incorporated into the new stadium is great.
