‘My penis was cut and then stitched shut’ – Steven Gerrard opens up on horrific Liverpool injury

Why?

If you're eating, put it down for a second. Steven Gerrard's new book has just gotten a whole lot more graphic. The Liverpool legend's autobiography is being serialised in the Daily Mail but the latest extract we could probably all have done without. Because he has only gone and opened up about an 'eye-watering' penis injury. Gerrard cut it against Bournemouth last season in the FA Cup and it sounds painful. "The magic of the FA Cup was bloodied on the day my penis was cut and then stitched shut on an unromantic afternoon in Bournemouth last year," why? Just why? "It was eye-watering. I tried to close down a winger to block his cross but felt a stinging in my privates. I thought, 'S**t — that doesn't feel right!' It was stinging like f**k. "The gash looked pretty bad, right across the middle. There was plenty of blood. I needed four stitches and the lads were absolutely p*ssing themselves". At least they could piss themselves. No pics please.
