Stevie's cup final day accessory
You might notice something a little different about Steven Gerrard if and when he lifts the Carling Cup trophy on Sunday.
That's because the skipper has pledged to accessorise both before and after the game in the name of charity.
The Scouser will wear a new Steven Gerrard Foundation wristband, which have just been launched to raise money for poorly or needy children.
Gerrard explained: "Everyone is aware of wristbands, it's been done before and they're cheap - a couple of pounds. It opens the possibility of donating to everyone - kids, adults and all the Liverpool fans around the world.
"If all these people can just take a few minutes out of their time to go onto the website and give £2 then it all adds up and these sick kids get a bit of the help they need.
"We've taken our time making them and they're really nice. It's come at a perfect time: Wembley week. There is no better way to promote them than going into a big game like this.
"I'll be wearing the wristband before and after the game and, who knows? Maybe if we win I'll have one on when I lift the cup. That's the idea."
It will be the first time Gerrard has led out the Reds at Wembley - and his first domestic showpiece since the 'Gerrard final' of 2006 when he was the hero in our defeat of West Ham.
"It's massive and it's a great week," said the No.8. "Everyone at the club, all the players and the staff, have done a fantastic job getting us to Wembley.
"It's superb for the supporters and you can feel the buzz around the city. Now we've got to go and do the difficult part: beating Cardiff and making sure we bring the cup home.
"It's been too long since we were in a cup final at Wembley and it's been too long since we last got to a major cup final domestically in 2006. It's time we delivered as players and put a cup in the cabinet."
For Gerrard to lift the trophy on Sunday, Liverpool will have to overcome a Cardiff side that could include his cousin. So will his Anthony be wearing a wristband too?
"I don't think so because they're in white and red, so it doesn't suit the Cardiff kit," said Gerrard. "I'm sure after the game he'll put a wristband on - he likes to do his bit for the kids who need our help.
"He's a great lad and I hope it goes well for him on the day, but on the final whistle I hope he's disappointed."
Gerrard set up his Foundation in February 2011 as he realised the time was right to start giving back to the community in which he was raised.
But he insists football remains his top priority for the time being - especially in weeks like this.
"This is good for me," said the 31-year-old. "It's been a learning curve and a good experience. It's been an eye opener to see how much help these people need around the city and other places.
"I don't know how long I'm going to do the charity for but there is still a lot of hard work to get where I want to go and to raise the amount of money I want to raise.
"Of course my football has to come first. It's my job, what I do day in, day out. I do the charity work in my own time, away from the game, and I do it at the right time.
"It's something I enjoy and it's my way of giving something back. It's easy to be comfortable in your own life and forget about these people who need help, but I like to do my bit in my own time.
"If there is a big game around the corner or a big period of games, I don't do anything for the charity - but when it's the right time I give it a lot of attention."
The wristband is the latest fundraising initiative the Foundation has used. There is already a Text to Give option on www.stevengerrardfoundation.org.
Charities and other worthy bodies can apply to receive financial support from the Foundation - but they'll have to be quick as the deadline for grant applications is March.
"If their cause covers what we're looking at - which is sick children, family breakdown, kids who are getting abused, disadvantaged children - we believe we can help them over a number of years with finance," added Gerrard.
