Steven Gerrard

You can multiply the hysteria of being knocked out by 100 if Rodgers hadn't started Gerrard at Wembley.
That's the ****ing circus we're dealing with these days, an undisputed great of the club but I'll be glad next season when we can focus on the team not 1 player every ******* week.

If Lucas had been fit he probably wouldnt have started

Lucas not being fit gave us little opportunity but to play him

Yesterday the thing that struck me was that all the permutations that Rodgers had available were all equally ****

If we left Gerrard out and moved Can into midfield that would have meant playing Toure at centrehalf

Then you have players like Johnson, Borini & Lambert on the bench "offerring alternatives" to the ****fest served up on the pitch

IMO his hands were pretty much tied but that said the failure to adequately fatten out the squad in areas that has mattered has completely ****ing killed us this season

I certainly wouldnt be in a rush to find more money for Brendan to spend this summer

I'd prefer it if we added to the squad with the likes of Milner (who I think would get into our first choice side in about 4 positions) Garbutt and Ings all on frees (tribunal for Ings) as replacements for Lambert, Enrique and Gerrard.

Then went all out and spent whatever budget we have on 2 or 3 proven players.
Those 3 would strengthen our squad and still be on much lower wages combined than the 3 outgoing ones.
Buy a right sided centre back, centre midfielder and striker.

Rodgers has proved he can improve young/er players and he also got the best season of Suarez's career out of him.
I think he can work with players at either end of the scale, the ones in the middle he struggles with.

That would be fine and dandy but the reality is we will bring in Milner as a marquee and the likes of Ings and Williams will be touted as the big premiership proven names and 4 unknowns will be spunked with the rest of the cash...

I have been following this club for over 50 years. This man is head and shoulders above every other player I have seen. He was never my favorite player for various reasons but for all round skill, class and influence within the team he is number 1. If we had a hall of fame, he would have pride of place.

I would have 4 people in that hall of fame.

1. Steven Gerrard.
2. Bill Shankly
3. Bob Paisley
4. Kenny Dalgliesh

I have said this before but Gerrard is easily our greatest ever player in my eyes, and also the best English player I have ever seen. A genuine bonafide legend who will be missed next season and beyond.

The banner in the Kop says it all really...

The best there is, the best there was and the best there ever will be.

I'd still put Kenny ahead of him but its very close, which is probably the biggest compliment I can pay to him

I'm sure many will agree, I put Kenny in my H of F because of his contribution as a player, manager and man and because his overall contribution to the club has been magnificent.

I placed Stevie above him because of his contribution to the club during a barren spell when the club has often been dire, his shining light pulled us through so much ****, often on his own, plus his ability to play in any position and nail it, this just gets his head a bit higher above the parrot pit, than the other 3.

In terms of as a player and I mean solely as a player I have Kenny just ahead

I know Gerrard did a ton of work on his own often with not much around him, however I think a lot of people underestimate what Kenny did

Between 77-87 when he didnt play the rest of the team were mere mortals, when he did play he elevated them to godlike levels

Dalglish would have made Gerrard look an even better player, I am not sure Gerrard could have had the same impact on Kenny

Great players in their own right but I have Kenny a tad ahead but only by a hairs breadth

At their best, they might have been competing for the same position, just behind the striker (Torres / Rush)

All credit to Stevie for the career he's had, with toddler fat knees.
