JAKARTA - Steven Gerrard's support after being fired from Aston Villa continues to arrive. This time from Liverpool's manager, Jurgen Klopp.

The man from Germany admitted that he had had a brief conversation with the Liverpool legend. He believes Gerrard will soon rise after his failure at Aston Villa.

"I'm sure he will rise from the (dismissal). We had a chance to talk this morning, but there were no conversations that were too deep or long," Klopp said.

"I can imagine that this disappoints him because of the ambition he has."

Gerrard was sacked by Villa after a 0-3 loss to Fulham in the Premier League continued match. He only lasted 11 months at Villa Park.

This season, Aston Villa has only won two of the 11 matches played. They fell in 17th position.

Klopp believes the former Liverpool captain and England national team will learn from this experience.

"We don't have to worry about fighting him, he knows about football for a long time so he already knows these things are happening. We all get hit. It's about how you respond," Klopp said.

Gerrard came to Villa with a classy achievement in the Scottish League. He successfully led Rangers to a Scottish title in 2021, ending Celtic dominance.

Klopp suggested that Gerrard temporarily rest to recover mentally before re-entering training.

"It happened to great coaches out there, some had to leave their clubs for different reasons, some of the best coaches," he said.
