Apologies if this has been posted already, but I've only just seen it.

had just been reading that.
some great things said in it......
Liverpool fans tend to rewrite history when it comes to the player who did just about everything in his power to board the Chelsea express in 2004 (Google his quotes from that time) until thuggish threats to his family persuaded him to step back.
And in the process Gerrard has become half man, half folk-ballad.
Second-best in England this season? He wasn’t even remotely close to being second best at his own club.
In truth, he ranked somewhere between the fourth and eighth most valuable player at Liverpool.
Unquestionably adrift of Luis Suarez, Daniel Sturridge and Raheem Sterling, any honest internal poll would have him jostling with Jordan Henderson, Philippe Coutinho and Simon Mignolet for the minor placings in a thrilling year of rebirth.
Gerrard was not in the top 20 performers in England.
comments are a good read too......
Good work Roy. The truth hurts. On the plus-side, Demba Ba has never had his name sung so much.
That huddle after the City game proved two things:
1) liverpool football club has become a caricature of themselves
2) gerrard is a terrible and amateurish leader
