Gerrard out of City clash - Liverpool will not be drawn on captain's return from ankle infection

Steven Gerrard: Liverpool captain is currently sidelined with an ankle infection

Steven Gerrard will miss Liverpool's clash with Manchester City on Sunday and there is still no date in place for when the midfielder will return.

The England international has seen his season so far wrecked by injury, with groin surgery from last term keeping him out of action until he was eased back into the side in September.

But an ankle infection sustained in late October has put him back on the treatment table and he has missed their last three outings either side of the international break.

The 31-year-old, who has made just two starts and three substitute appearances this term, is not under consideration for Sunday's Anfield showdown with the Premier League leaders.
