Gerrard told the High Performance podcast: "There are times when it dominates your life and you can't control that. That's what it is. But there will be a stage in my life where I have to give it up, for the sake of my family and for myself. To cut it, and live life with a bit of peace.

"For Alex and the kids, at some stage, I'm going to have to give myself to them, 100%. When that will be, who knows? Alex would take it tomorrow. She'd take it tomorrow."
