Gerrard on Kenny

[Neil Young]

I don't see anything wrong with what Gerrard said.

I want to see much more fighting spirit from our Captain on and off the pitch.

Supporters should just pay their dues and support the club and team. They should refrain from criticising them.

And people posting views on fan forums should agree with the views expressed by those posting before them.

Hmmmm, supporters spend a lot of money for the privilege of supporting their teams while the players are paid obscene amounts of money for playing football. Supporters have every right to moan if they feel short changed while the players should be playing out of their skins week in, week out.

Off the pitch, I was told Gerrard was boarding a train at Euston at 1:00 last Sunday and I was asked why wasn't he at Anfield supporting the team.

I was surprised and said he must have a reason and I hope that's true.

I thought I saw him watching from the stands when I got home and watched it through

It's no surprise to me Gerrard wants Kenny Dalglish as our next manager. Just as it was no surprise to me Gerrard supposedly(and i believe it to be the case) wanted Rafa out and supported the Hodgson appointment.

The reason being Gerrard loves to have a luvy duvy relationship with his manager, this goes way back to the Houllier days.
Dalglish rightly or wrongly would be similar, not saying he Kenny isn't capbale of the old "hairdryer treatment" but in the main i imagine he'll have a close relationship with his players. Gerrard and Kenny have knew each other for years and were pals before Kenny took over as Manager, that can't be overlooked either.
Gerrard knows that under Kenny he'll still be the main man and the team will be played around him, he'll not be hooked in a Merseyside derby under Dalglish that's for sure.

In the Rafa era, Gerrard wasn't mollycoddled. Rafa had a reputation for being quite the opposite of what he likes from his manager.
Rafa is a distant man and manager, not the type to praise individual players at every opportunity. Gerrard loves an ego boost, that's clear.
And i think in the end Gerrard got fed up with Rafa's ways, hence his appalling attitude and performances throughout last season which obviously played a part in getting Rafa the sack

Think it's just over 2 hours from Euston so he would have plenty of time to leave at 1 and get to the game.

You need to tell cream that.

You think Kenny is the mollycoddle, luvvy-dovey type?

[SB]

It's just possible that our captain is letting any potential targets know that things are on the up at the club and the feel good factor is back. He could also be saying there's a good chance that Kenny will be in charge next season so new signings wouldn't have to worry about a new manger coming in and them not being part of the new mans plans.

Just maybe !

Not necessarily, i'm not saying he is but he's defo no Rafa in terms of being cold and distant from his players which suits Gerrard down to the ground.

[Tezza1974]

I don't see anything wrong with what Gerrard said. The problem is that he should say things like this more often whatever manager we have.

Totally agree people seem to be forgetting that the article was in LFC Weekly and it was about a living LFC Legend. Kenny is the one manager Gerrard could never say anything other than good things about and how he would work his hardest for him.... shame he didn't defend Rafa last yr -the manager who worked out his best postion wasn't central midfield....

So rafa got the very best out of gerrard put him where he is best played rather than where he wants to play but didn't give him a cuddle. So he now wants kenny as manager ... how come if they were such good mates he didn't support kenny to begin with and landed us with woy???
As you said stevie likes the ego boost but when did he become bigger than LFC?
