Steven Gerrard has expressed his disappointment for Rafael Benitez following his Everton sacking, but admits he was shocked his former Liverpool boss was willing to work at Goodison Park.

Benitez oversaw a run of just one Premier League win in 13 games between October and January, with Everton's 2-1 defeat at Norwich last weekend proving to be the final straw for owner Farhad Moshiri.

The Spaniard did enjoy a strong start to his reign, leading Everton to four wins from their first six league matches, but he struggled to win over a number of the club's fans given his long association with Liverpool.
