Goes down as the greatest to ever wear the red shirt for me. Only Dalglish, Souness, and Suarez even touch him. He's been a hell of a player with such a complete game, and he's played just about every position on the field for us at times. He could run with the ball, tackle, pass, score screamers, and carry this team on his back. I don't know how many times he saved us when we were down, and I don't know how many more trophies he could have won had he left. He's been a rock and a rare example of passion and loyalty in an era of sport defined by spoiled mercenaries. Top man, top player. I'm gonna be a bloody wreck in may. oh come on now. A true great, no doubt in that AT ALL....but you're going to be "a bloody wreck"?  I think some SERIOUSLY need to get a grip, reality check and move on. Do you think Gerrard is going to be shedding tears for us lot? He'll undoubtedly be a bit sad on the last day, but wrecked/distraught...REALLY?  Correct, no bloody chance, no matter what sound bytes he comes up with.

I think he means after we survive a relegation dogfight.
That job interview was going so well until I realized I was fukked up on acid in the middle of a cornfield naked and talking to a scarecrow.

This chocked me up a bit today. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_fk-otM2fI&feature=youtu.beThe lad shouldered so much responsibility, single handedly dug us out of so many situations. Endured spirit crushing politics and posturing within the club (as did we) and was never lured away with the promise of league titles. What a player and what a local hero. There might be other midfielders in the future but none will be as explosive as Gerrard was. Mr Liverpool indeed. People say his legs are going and that might be true, but had we built a proper team around him he still would have been contributing a lot more. It's not that he can't add to the team, it's just that he can't prop them up single handedly anymore.
Luis Garcia, He drinks sangria
He came from Barca, to bring us Joy
He's five foot seven, he's football heaven
please don't take my Luis away.

Steven Gerrard will always have his name written in Gold in the Liverpool Football Club Hall of Fame. To me, he is the only link we still have with our glorious past, the only current Liverpool player who will forever be a Great Red. He is extremely unfortunate not to have been part of any great Liverpool side. The end of an era.

He's been my hero ever since I started watching this club. As much as you and some others make of the 05 Chelsea noise, he made his choice, and he stayed. He probably could have won the league and bloody everything else over again there, but he stayed because he loved the club. He's nowhere near his best anymore, and it's probably the best for the team, but he's been a bloody servant to the club that we'll never see again.

I can be a soppy mare at times but I think I will have to stop reading stuff about Gerrard, I know we knew this day would come but this had me going a bit.  You may have already read it?. http://xtra.liverpoolfc.com/listicles/st...-steven-gerrard

Well said either the best player or up there with the very best ever to play for the club depending on your view. Reading his reasons I think he is making the right decision not to play for a rival and to experience something different in his career. He will take some replacing and the coming 12 months will define Liverpool's future. I would say the best ever player to have played in a poor LFC team. With the way things are going I might end being so passionate about the club, really.

Simply impossible to express in words, the joy and euphoria I've experienced over the years due to what Steven Gerrard has achieved during his Liverpool career. So I'm just going to say.. Cheers Stevie.
