No Liverpool supporter in his right mind should speak ill of Stevie G. Simple as that. The man is a club institution no less, an example of loyalty and dedication in a time of mercantile footballers. However, there is no denying the fact that Gerrard seems more fired up in an England shirt nowadays. I have raised this opinion previously in a thread (Country vs. Club).

To suggest that it's ok for Gerrard to put country before club is lamebrained despite him playing well for all those years.He didn't do it for nothing.You say that Gerrard giving England a higher priority is ok because of his service over the years but yesterday doesn't count or cut it in football and to hint at the fact that it's a good thing so the club will sort out the midfield is quite ridiculous.If he gets injured and is out for a while is it ok because he can take a well earned rest.Ido agree that the club should have sorted out the midfield long ago but until they do it's Gerrard's extremely well paid job to do everything in his power to help the team not to ponce about in a meaningless friendly against a German side that regard this as a nothing game and aren't taking Otzil(spelling) and other big names to.In fact they have only requested 1000 tickets.This is the same Gerrard who basically picked his games whilst KD was in charge including missing out the last few games before the last Euros.Sorry the post is a bit disjointed.

I have never once suggested selling Gerrard,nor would I.You rightly say of the respect he commands at the club and the world over and he does deserve it,however when I said that he didn't do it for nothing I meant that he did it for a top top wage.You said"if he wants to put his last few international years in a higher priority,whether it's a friendly or not,then so be it".I'm sorry mate but if he isn't going to make LFC his top priority then maybe he should retire from our club because as you pointed out he is our club captain and what does it say when our club captain won't even give us his all.I have no problem him captaining his country but he's obviously fit at the moment,so how can he compete when he has to get doped up so that he can.How fit will he be come the derby or the difficult December fixtures which could define our season.Or would you rather England beat Germany in a pointless game than we perhaps made it to the CL.By the way what has Suarez not playing got to do with it.You also state that we shouldn't fear playing without him when we both agreed that our midfield is pretty weak.In addition you never mentioned how pointless this game really is and Germany's reaction to it.

Excellent post, and absolutely bang on.

Haven't bothered replying to the whingers about some of us DARING to critisise the worshipped alledged God of LFC, as it's a waste of time.
It's a pointless friendly as could possibly be our PL campaign if we lose him to this moment or aftermath of this sheer selfish lunacy.
LFC should come first, end of! mad

People are blowing this up to be bigger than it is.

The injections are part of his normal fitness routine, which he has every two years to help with back problems. It's his body, and he knows what he's doing. Let's trust his judgment.
