adminLONDON. — Liverpool duo Luis Suarez and Steven Gerrard have jointly been awarded the Barclays English Premier League Player of the Month award for March, with Anfield boss Brendan Rodgers collecting the Manager of the Month award. The clean sweep for the Liverpool trio rewards a month in which the club won all five of their games to go top of the Premier League table, with Rodgers’ side scoring 18 goals as they beat Southampton, Manchester United, Cardiff, Sunderland and Tottenham.
Uruguay international Suarez bagged six goals in those five games, including a hat trick against the Bluebirds to cap an impressive 6-3 win, while club captain Gerrard scored fouls goals — including two penalties at Old Trafford in a convincing 3-0 victory — to put the Reds within touching distance of their first league title in 24 years.
Liverpool are currently two points clear of second-placed Chelsea with five game to go, and face a vital game against third-placed Manchester City tomorrow.
