Its not the tiredness but the injury risk that is caused due to playin in unimportant matches.OK Gerrard wants to play in every game,he wants to play in the world cup but if his place is guaranteed why should he be playin in a match which counts for nothing & if he picks an injury in that match it could seriously hamper his season & WC too.
OK he wanted to play at Anfield for country,if I was Sven i would have brought him in for the last 8-10 mins or so only,not in the first 45 mins when tempo is a bit high & the energy of play might result in someone injuring u.
all said & done he's fine ,he'll play against Charlton & i just want to see us winning a lot of games from now until the WC.
