Steven Gerrard sets Jermain Defoe 900 appearances target

Rangers manager Steven Gerrard has tipped the Gers striker Jermain Defoe to break the 900 appearances barrier after marking his 800th professional appearances on Sunday against Ross County as he scored in their 4-0 victory. During this season the 38-year-old has made 7 appearances in which he has scored 4 goals and provided 2 assists. “It wouldn’t surprise me if he went on to make 900 appearances. He’s in incredible shape and loves coming into work," said Gerrard. “He is still trying to learn and improve. He is ready at any given moment. You can see he is hungry to get on the pitch, you can tell by his performance he is still hungry to score goals. “I thought Cedric was magnificent for Jermain’s goal. It’s a big help knowing you’ve got JD there to come and help kill teams off. “He’ll start enough games this season and he’ll get enough cameos coming on. He is a big, important player for us moving forward." source - GlasgowTimes
