Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has said that he will "miss" Steven Gerrard when the Liverpool skipper leaves for Los Angeles Galaxy at the end of the season.
Gerrard scored the equalising goal on his final appearance at Stamford Bridge this afternoon before receiving a standing ovation from both sets of fans when being substituted late on.
Mourinho is known to have been interested in signing Gerrard for Chelsea, Inter Milan and Real Madrid, and the Portuguese boss was keen to express the "respect" that he has for the former England captain.
"To get an ovation at Stamford Bridge is special for Steven Gerrard, we have lots of respect for the top guys. I will miss him," Mourinho told Sky Sports News.
"I want my league to be always the best league, I want my league to have always the best players."
John Terry got the opening goal at Stamford Bridge in a 1-1 draw that saw Liverpool's Champions League hopes all but ended with two games of the season remaining.
