Steven Gerrard

[el matador]

Scholes did okay.

because he had a lot of other good players around him. they wheel him out now and then because he's still got an exceptional brain and technically his feet are still good.

but the pace and the intensity of the running has long gone and in a team like ours you do need that to cover for others weaknesses.

the tiki-taka might play into his hands because if we have the ball theres obviously less to do but when we dont have the ball you still need to work hard to get it back.

I would play him either in a 3 man midfield with lucas and henderson with licence to move forward or play him off the striker.

Gerrard has always been my idol and he's a player who's been at the top level of the game for 10 years. You see Gerrard defending and attacking. I would like to be able to play more like that.

I hate seeing Gerrard play for England. I also don't like his interviews for England. The cliches seem to flow profusely, and his monotonous tone goes right through me.

Caught the last part of something on the radio about L'Equipe voting SG best player of the qualifying round of matches.

[Tee]

Yep, he scored the highest average rating from L'Equipe for the group games.

Thank God England are out. Really could have done without Gerrard pulling his calf. Another game with Germany could have ruled him out for months, if he isn't already shortly to be.

[Kenneth]

He'll be alright, but it's telling that he struggled in the end. Maybe we'll need to use him a little more sparingly next season and certainly beyond.

[Rich]

The amount of games in a short period of time and playing in a central two with Parker did for him.

[Kenneth]

True, but that schedule is not completely alien to the PL.

[kop-al-74]

It looked like he struggled but he was on a leash all night....hodgson is really clueless as ****. I was supporting england but bodgson really ruined it for me....now the rest of the nation will maybe notice the inept prick that is Hodgson and realise that Liverpool supporters were right about him.

[Kenneth]

Unfortunately, I don't think they will. They'll blame bad luck in the shootout.
