Centre Midfield

Gerard is a positionally flexible player having played in all midfield and forward positions. In his early career, Gerard tended to play in central midfield due to his vision and passing ability; more recently he has extended this to playing as a striker or winger reflecting his exceptional pace and finishing accuracy. Gerard has pace, running past opponents with ease. Extraordinary close ball control, at age 11 could perform over 500 “keeps ups”, great vision, spotting and executing quick short passes, and a renowned top goal scorer at most teams he has played for, even from midfield recognizing the importance of placement, often slotting the ball past the keeper.
