Was Gerrard offered Poland job?

Gerrard has been evaluating his next move since being sacked by Aston Villa in October. He is now in line for the Poland national team job, as revealed by Polish media outlet Meczyki.

His first managerial adventure at Glasgow Rangers was successful, as he led the Ibrox side to their first Scottish title since 2011, remaining unbeaten in the process.

However, Gerrard left Aston Villa in relegation zone when he was sacked.

As noted by the Sun, the former England international could be offered a bumper contract which would be paid by the revenue generated from Gerrard's sponsorship. He would also link up with two former players, Matty Cash and Jan Bednarek.

Players blamed for Gerrard sacking

Gerrard's successor at Aston Villa, Unai Emery has turned the club's season around with three wins from four Premier League games, but the Villans have been eliminated from the two domestic cup competitions.

After the shock elimination to League Two side Stevenage in the FA Cup, Emery blamed Gerrard's sacking on players' attitudes, as reported by Sports Brief.

The former Arsenal boss questioned players' mentality after his side led the game until the 88th minute, before conceding two late goals to the lower league side.
