Steven Gerrard admits he wonders whether he should have extended his Liverpool career for another year - to have the chance of playing under Jurgen Klopp.
After cementing his place as a legend with his boyhood club, Gerrard departed the Reds in May 2015 for LA Galaxy in Major League Soccer.
Klopp arrived at Liverpool just five months later as replacement for the sacked Brendan Rodgers, and has since guided Liverpool to a sixth European Cup with his team currently eight points clear at the top of the Premier League table.
Gerrard returned to Liverpool as U18s coach for the 2017-18 campaign before being named boss of Glasgow Rangers.
And the 39-year-old - who featured for both Rangers and Liverpool in the Legends game at Ibrox on Saturday - has allowed himself to wonder what might have been under Klopp at Anfield.
"I always had little thoughts as I've gone along," he said. "Should I have stayed at Liverpool? Should I have signed a year extension? Maybe I might have been able to have that cameo under Jurgen Klopp as maybe a squad player.
"These things always cross my mind but, look, I made decisions. I am very proud of my Liverpool career, I am very proud of where I am up to now in my management."
Speaking to Sky Sports, Gerrard added: "I want to give that my full focus and keep trying to learn and grow and improve and see where that journey takes me now.
"But, of course, you always have little moments - imagine if I'd stayed at Liverpool a bit longer and maybe I'd bumped into Jurgen Klopp, as someone who could maybe have given him 10-15 minutes off the bench.
"Of course it has crossed my mind - I would have loved that."
