Former Aston Villa boss Steven Gerrard says he's had offers to return to management.

The Liverpool great was sacked by Villa in October.

"They gave me an opportunity in the Premier League and it was a successful experience initially because we achieved the remit of guiding the team away from the bottom of the table to safety," said Gerrard about his decision to take the Villa job speaking in 'The Manager' magazine from the League Managers Association.

"I've had time to analyse and reflect thoroughly on the challenges of our second season. In football, you have to learn from your mistakes and take strength from your successes."

"You have to reset, wait and be patient for the fire and fight to return," he added.

"I've been offered opportunities to manage at club and international level since I left Villa, including an exciting opportunity in an overseas league, but none have been right for me at this time. In the meantime, I'm enjoying being an Uber driver for my girls and my little boy."
