Steven Gerrard

Whoooops...
 
The first two are completely debatable.

The creativity, first touch, passing, technique, decision making, composure and the ability to dictate a game is what set them apart.
Gerrard has better drive, better at making thing happen in movement, but that is down to the difference in playing style. All the best players in the world the last decade will tell you that Scholes is better.

I just can't believe that anyone can actually think that Gerrard is better than Scholes. Scholes is just a class above. Gerrard is a instinctive player and a player with the composure, technique and fotballing brain will always be the better player.
 
What a great day. It could not have worked out better. Anybody know how Brenton reacted?
 
Bollocks. Argue Gerrard is better all you like but Toure is technically better and certainly more creative.

Agreed. I think a fact people are missing here is that the likes of Toure and Scholes have stood out in teams with far better players than Liverpool. Had either played for a team like Liverpool they'd have got far more praise as their quality would be more evident imo.

In centre midfield Scholes is a different level to Gerrard . From behind a striker or wide Gerrard is a different level to Scholes.


O
ut wide maybe, but behind the striker? It's not really a fair comparison as Scholes hardly ever played there, but the one season he did, he scored 20 goals and was our best player leading us to an amazing comeback in the league to overtake Arsenal. I don't remember him ever taking a penalty either (apart from the FA cup final in which we were the only team playing yet somehow still managed to lose).

There's no doubt in my mind that England would have fared better in tournaments with Scholes in the team, rather than Gerrard or Lampard. You have to go back to Scholes' last tournament for the last time England managed to score more than 5 goals overall. Interestingly, England have only ever scored more goals in one tournament other than Euro 2004 and that was 1966. I'll never forget his last game for England, Rooney going off injured and being replaced by Vassell instead of putting Joe Cole on the left and moving Scholes behind Owen. Then at 1-0 up, the genius that was Sven Goran Eriksson takes off Scholes and replaces him with Phil Neville. Phil of course added some much needed steel, as he proved when Rui Costa left him on his arse before hitting that rocket. I know he'd been considering it for a while, but surely being replaced by Phil fecking Neville must have made up his mind to retire.
 
That Pulis one isn't going to let me get to sleep.

I wonder who will play Stevie when they make the film about him never winning the league?
 
The answer to the 3 envelopes is finally clear: Gerrard, Gerrard, Gerrard.
 
This definitely needs to play as the teams are coming out at OT next time we play Liverpool.

 
The winner takes it all
The loser has to fall



If it were up to me I'd have played THIS at full time
 
Truely awful stuff from Gerrard these last two weeks. The slip, the beyond selfish performance v Chelsea and then tonight he bottles it at 3-0 up with ten minutes to go. Terrible game management and lack of leadership from the captain.

His legacy has altered so much in such a short space of time.
 
What a story! You couldn't have made it up. This terrible excuse of a leader/captain gives a Chelsea striker the ball to deny us our 19th title. So what? We have still won 2 more since then. Four years after that incredible small time act, he gives a Chelsea striker the ball to deny Liverpool their 19th title.
To make it worse for himself, he got so carried away after the City game. Ppl here were criticizing him for that, it was so pre-mature and showed how he doesn't have the experience of winning a PL title and that nothing was won yet! Now he has to deal with all this the eternal loser! I don't even feel an ounce of sympathy for him!
 
I love the way he brushes the camera away, as if nobody has a right to see that cheating rat cry his eyes out.
