British actor Daniel Craig believes that Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard has all the right attributes to play film character James Bond in the future.

Craig, who is a Reds supporter, is the current 007 agent in the movie franchise and is preparing for the release of new film Skyfall this week.

"Who would I rather be, captain of Liverpool or Bond?" the Daily Star quotes Craig as saying.

"Well I don't think I could keep up any more so Bond will do but Steven Gerrard would make a good Bond. He is a good leader so you know what, seriously, who knows?"

Meanwhile, Gerrard played his part in a 1-0 win over Reading on Saturday.
