Liverpool midfielder and captain Steven Gerrard shared the honour of the Barclays Player of the month for March with team-mate and striker Luis Suarez while Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers won the Manager of the month award for the second time this season.

Liverpool won all their 5 Premier League games in March with the highlight being the 3-0 drubbing of Manchester United at Old Trafford.

Gerrard was at the thick of things on that day as he put away two penalties from the spot. Consistent performances in midfield have resulted in the Englishman winning the award for a Premier League record 6th time.

Luis Suarez has continued to be unstoppable and added 6 goals to his tally in March to take his overall count for the season to 29. Suarez, the leading goalscorer in the Premier League this season, was also named Player of the Month in December.

Liverpool are challenging for the Premier League title this season and they currently sit on top of the table. The Merseysiders have won their last 9 games in the league and head into a potentially title-deciding clash against Manchester City at Anfield on Sunday.
