KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum stevie g leaving at seasons end

But he's not a world class player any more. Our best performances in the last dozen or so games have been when he was dropped. It would have been a hammer blow to have lost him 5 or more years ago, but not now.

He was a world class player, and was never replaced. id like to see him get a run out with one of the bigger clubs just as an experiment. bet he has more in the tank than ya see at our shiit stop cafe.

Gutted doesn't even cut it. I don't even know what to say.

The rumour is strong but not confirmed so still hopeful we hold onto him. If not I wish him all the best because he deserves it. One of the best ever and truly the best ever for LFC.

He was a great player world class player and I will forever remember how he took games and ran them. Scored screamers, went above and beyond for this club on the pitch Istanbul comes to mind.

But sadly his form has dipped his legs are gone and he just doesnt seem interested anymore and who the hell can blame him. That is understandble and him leaving might just be what we need so other players can start carrying their own weight. Gerrard cannot play ninety minutes week in week out, he should be used sparingly and that is what Rodgers just doesn't get.

Is Gerrard world class? No. Did we replace him? Yes but if you don't give players time to play you will never see it. Fickle fvcken minded bunch we are. We want football manager fantasy players but we buy players who shine in other teams. Why because they are trusted by their managers to perform and grow.

With fvcknnutt BR at the helm Sterling has grown immensely, can Ibe, Can, Henderson, etc do that? Maybe maybe not but if your manager goes on and on about how he didn't want you etc and is out to prove a stupid point then you will never fvcken improve.

BR should be out the door this week as well.

Never particularly liked him as a person, especially after the will he or won't he go to chelski debacle in '05, but as a servant to LFC, can't fault him at all, and his past endeavours will be sorely missed.

Well its official.
SG is leaving LFC.
Persoanlly im gutted. I guess we all dreamed that such a loyal player and captain would be rewarded by helping the club win the league.
I think after coming so close last year and seeing the fall out this year Stevie knows in his heart its just not meant to be.
The only word i think best sums up Stevie is RESPECT.

I feel a little sorry for him, people will say he earns x amount a year so why should I feel sorry for him, but I do. He gave up England so he could continue playing regularly for Liverpool. Brendan has let him down, if he knew how to sign a decent player there would be less pressure on Gerrard to perform every game - we've become accustomed to him pulling us out of a hole singalhandedly, he can no longer do this. He is our last quality player, it's a sad time to be a Liverpool fan right now.

Sadly very true.
Last of the 'old school'.

Got to give him credit for staying loyal to LFC, discounting the 05 'wobble'.

Don't blasme him for going now anyway.
Why TF would ANYONE want to stay with a slightly leaky ship in ther middle of the Ocean with a baling bucket, goosed engine knocking its tits off, and no rudder?
