Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho says Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard will forever be a legend.
The 34-year-old plays his final match at Anfield on Saturday before he joins Los Angeles Galaxy.
"What I never did was to put big pressure on him to try to persuade him to leave Liverpool and play for me. I always respect the feeling," said Mourinho.
"I think that tomorrow he's going to feel that the decision to play for Liverpool was worth it.
"He will be a big legend for life."
