Captain Steven Gerrard has been voted the This Is Anfield Fans Player of the Month for November.

Gerrard won the vote just ahead of Dutch forward Dirk Kuyt, with defender Daniel Agger taking third place in the members vote in the forums.

The month of November saw Momo Sissoko’s injury picked up in the Birmingham League Cup win eventually mean Gerrard was moved into his ‘favoured’ central midfield role for the Middlesbrough match - following the 3-0 defeat at the Emirates Stadium.

After the bore-draw at the Riverside Gerrard began to show signs of improvement in his form, first grabbing the opener against PSV at Anfield then then his first League goal of the season to break the deadlock against Man City. Both goals saw the skipper driving through the middle and finishing expertly.
