West Ham boss David Moyes has paid tribute to Aston Villa rival Steven Gerrard ahead of Sunday's clash.
Moyes says he has been impressed by the former Liverpool captain's transition from playing to managing.
Moyes said: “He took the under-18s at Liverpool then took on a huge task at Rangers, especially to try and stop Celtic winning 10 (league titles) in a row. He took that on, which in itself was a monumental achievement for Rangers supporters, and also a really stressful job.
“He has now gone and taken on a really big job in the Premier League with Aston Villa. I like the way he has tried to develop himself and he has not jumped in right away thinking 'this is easy'.
“I think he has tried to train himself up and get some experience and learn on the job. He's doing a very good job."
