Rangers boss and Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard nominated for all time Ballon D'Or dream team

Rangers boss Steven Gerrard has been nominated for an all time Ballon D'Or dream team.

The Liverpool legend features in the 'defensive midfielder' category alongside the likes of Andrea Pirlo, Xavi and Lothar Matthaus.

France Football are attempting to come up with a greatest team in history, with fans required to vote for players to fill each of the eleven starting positions.

Among the nominees in the offensive midfield positions are Gheorghe Hagi, Bobby Charlton, Andres Iniesta, Zinedine Zidane and Diega Maradona.

While Gerrard wasn't exactly a defensive midfielder, you can expect fans of both Liverpool and Rangers casting their votes in a bid to ensure his inclusion in the side.

A number of supporters have used the nomination to remember some of his finest moments in a Liverpool shirt on social media.

Gerrard made 504 appearances for Liverpool and won 114 caps for England during his playing career.
