England’s golden generation were egotistical losers, says Steven Gerrard

Steven Gerrard, the former England captain, has criticized the "golden generation" of English football players, describing them as "egotistical losers" who failed to achieve success due to a lack of unity within the squad. Gerrard, who won 114 caps for England, admitted that he disliked being away with the national team, and attributed the squad's lack of success to the cliques formed by players from rival clubs like Liverpool, Manchester United, and Chelsea. The former Liverpool captain also expressed a desire to have "unfinished business" in management, suggesting that he believes he could have achieved more as a player if the team had a more cohesive and collaborative environment.
