2004/2005 = 13 goals. Played alongside alonso in centre mid. Switched from centre mid 1at half 3-0 down to role he plays now in istanbul, came back to win on pens

2005/2006 = 22goals. Played right wing, not your orthodox right winger was allowed pretty much a free role (like zidane was for Madrid) alsono and sissoko was the preferred centre mid partnership.

2006/2007 = 11 goals. Alonso, sissoko again preffered in centre of park followed by mascherano aswell. Gerrard was on the right but also the left on occasions

2007/2008 = 20 goals. Alonso mascherano Lucas where considered to be are central mids, kuyt was moved to right wing and gerrard just off torres

2008/2009 = 24 goals. Beating his previoUs record of 22. In total that season he got 29 for club and country. Englands central pairing was Barry and lampard, gerrard wa either shoved out left or up behind Rooney. Partnership with torres was unstoppable. Finished 2nd

2009/2010 = 11 goals. Equals his goal tally in the 06/07 season. Didn't play particulary well, as did the whole team. Torres still managed to bang in 18 league goals in 22 games. The whole team missed alonso

2010/2011= 3goals - .

To the poster who said I've exaggerated about his goals per season. Sorry, I re correct myself ( between 10-25 per season)

Stevie G is best when he drives forward from a deep position. Given that he is not tactically sound enough to be absolutely world class CM, he is still very good enough to play there as and when he is needed

Make no mistake that if we get the players that can pass the ball around intelligently and find him with accurate quick passes, Gerrard can single handedly destroy defenses. He is that good. But he needs a team around him, one that does not depend on him too much.

If you ask me if Gerrard would make it to the first team world 11, i would say yes to him being a RM or RB but never an AM, striker or CM.

I dont think he would get in a world 11 at all am afraid, not ahead of Alvez at right back and he is not world class at right midfield either, would even have Aaron Lennon ahead of him in the pecking order and deffo Ronaldo. Central midfield he is not in the same class as Essien as a defensive midfielder and as an attacking one he is'nt as good as Sneider just off the top of my head, off the striker he is behind Messi and Rooney, so you see there are all players better in positions, having said that although not world class in any one position I do think he is the most complete footballer around in that he has a very good level in all footballing abilities.

That would be amazing. Not because he'd be playing with gerrard, just because we'd have a midfielder in the side who's better than gerrard and wouldn't feel the need to pass to him just because gerrard thinks he's inferior to everyone else.

Didn't read in any previous posts that it was going to happen. Just thought it was wishful thinking
