He did defended Suarez though.
I think you have to accept he scored some great goals. The West Ham Cup Final equaliser was particularly fantastic. And I think underrated as a player (at his peak) by a lot of us.
You couldn't make up though, to rob his hometown club of a 1st title in yonks like that.
It'll be emotional.

The fact that he's going to spend the next couple of years being told that he can't speak English by Americans.
I like that he's never won the premier league too.
13 less Premier League titles than Ryan Giggs.
Pulling off the dive of the century in the 2005 CL final.
The slip.
That speech about not slipping.
Pushing the camera away after the Palace game.

I like the way Glen Johnson has managed to generate such warmth from his own manager and team staff. I think his last game at Binfield will be very emotional.
Nothing.. the Scouse bastard!
I love it that as much as they adore, love and idolize him, he doesn't give shit about any of them. He's so full of himself. It's beautiful.
Actually the best thing Stevie G. and his brave bunch brought to us by far:
(No thread should ever go without this. We should make this a sticky, it just never gets old and if I'm feeling sad it's the best thing to get me going again)

Still amazes me he managed to get caught on camera beating someone up with his mates, member of the clubs staff to boot
and got away with it. The fact they tried him in Liverpool is just worth extra giggles.Cant stop looking at that guy in middle of the GIF, must have the largest head in the UKActually the best thing Stevie G. and his brave bunch brought to us by far:

The main thing is me is that he spells his name with a V and not a PH, Steven's with a PH are nuts.
Nah that's all neck right there.
When I first noticed the two bald guys bowing to each other I couldn't stop watching for ages.
There is only one thing I like, that he is b*ggering off to the States.
He was a great player, and it's nice to see him get the respect from his own fans today, although expectingly,none From some of the more childish keyboard warriors here.
If Beckham can give him props, afterall...
I dont understand this irrational hate which apparently is banter. I follow a lot of other sports, namely hockey, and this sort of bitterness towards a great player is unheard of. It comes across as petty and reflects poorly.

Shots fired.
Time to go and find another sport then pal. This is football; it's tribal, it's irrational hatred sometimes it can be downright offensive, Gerrard is hated by a lot of Utd fans for among a lot of things his media portrayl as a bloody saint, never mind his hypocrisy and insencerity ..either deal with it or get lost
He was a massive cnut against us, but there's no denying how good he's been in the EPL. Can't believe i'm saying this, but i'm going to miss the scouse cnut.
Look, I'm going to say it, but I really respect him, don't like him, but respect him. He's loyal....he never left the club he loved, the same as Scholes, the same as Giggs and obviously a few others. Loyalty is so in the past and I have to respect him for this.
This gif is one of the best gifs ever seriously.Actually the best thing Stevie G. and his brave bunch brought to us by far:

I agree... And because of his connections to the 96 fans who died at Hillsborough I have always thought he was dignified in the way he dealt with that... Especially as the truth came out.
There is no need for animosity just because someone plays for and is probably (and rightly) considered an icon of a rival club... Very good player - genuinely seemed to care when he played for England and showed loyalty (some on here may consider it misguided loyalty but I personally respect him for it)
I think it's funny he never won a league title, funny that he slipped, stamped and funny he lost his final game
But After it's all said and done I do consider him a great Premier League player and deserved his send off. Not a huge fan of a lot of the comments I have seen today, but not surprised either.

My personal favourite is the Alan Carr lookalike registering whats just happened 10 seconds after the event.
They drew to Liverpool because the nutters thought they were going to win it on goal difference and went all out attack. It was never going to work and it hit back big time but with a draw/win against Chelsea I don't think they'd lose a 3-goal lead at Palace. Besides a draw might have still been good enough had they beaten Chelsea which they couldn't because Gerrard slipped.
He's great. I'm sure he must sound like Lou from Little Britain. Have you spotted the four that turn to the big man and bow down? Very suspicious...
his adorable daughters

I hadn't, now I see it
It's the gift that keeps on giving.I hadn't, now I see it
Make that 5, I just noticed the one at the top right does, too.I agree with Senor. It's amazing how many fans and pundits alike have blindly let that moment slip (no pun intended), whilst heaping praise on him and portraying him as the only loyal creature on the planet...
He just left, he's on his way to a new club. Also, the whole Chelsea thing?
He *is* good for a laugh.
Ah, thank you. Allegedly not a Nazi then.
Also, greatest send off in the history of send offs. Brilliant TV, for wrong reasons.
Yeah, somehow I really think we'll end up missing him. He's been the best parody of a nemesis one could possibly wish for, and I'm not sure if there ever will be an appropriate replacement. Thank you for the sweet and slippy memories Stevie G.
Have any Utd players paid tribute to him?
Only one i found was one from Becks.

The only things I like about him is the fact he's leaving Liverpool without a PL trophy and the slip.
Against Mexico.
Has it flown over the head of all these people circle-jerking over the 'one club man' nonsense that he's leaving to join another team?
