​​Steven Gerrard has named the four current Premier League stars he would have loved to have played with during his legendary playing career.

​Gerrard is the latest high-profile name to feature on Gary Neville's The Overlap YouTube channel and he didn't disappoint. 

The Aston Villa boss covered a host of topics in a quick-fire 32 questions with Neville.

From his managerial style to Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo, not to mention the current players he wished he could have played alongside.

The Liverpool legend didn't hesitate as he immediately named Mohamed Salah before naming Manchester United's Bruno Fernandes. 

"Mo Salah, Bruno Fernandes, you might not agree with that, but I really like him," he told Neville.

Gerrard continued by picking Manchester City ace Kevin De Bruyne, calling him 'one of the best in the world'.

He also singled out another Liverpool star as he selected the 'out of this world' Virgil van Dijk. 

Gerrard added: "Kevin De Bruyne for sure, 100 per cent, I think he's one of the best in the world right now.

"Defensive wise, I think Virgil [Van Dijk] is just out of this world at the moment."

Football's age-old question of Messi vs. Ronaldo was also posed to Gerrard, who sided with the Barcelona legend and current Paris Saint-Germain man. 

On Messi vs. Ronaldo, Gerrard revealed: "Lionel Messi for me, but I’m someone who would never say a derogatory thing about Ronaldo because he’s another phenomenal.​

"They’re the two in my era that were just… when you’re a footballer and you’ve done it yourself, the numbers are just… I’m not sure who’s going to do that again."

The Overlap is a YouTube channel from Gary Neville in partnership with Sky Bet.
