Cos for a lot of these years he's been our only attacking outlet and teams make sure they double and triple mark him whenever he's playing. When thats the case, there need to be other players who take up the mantle in an attacking sense but we have not had that for a good while now. Torres this season, though and maybe someone else the next. If we have more than a few players who're a genuine threat, other teams will be forced to concentrate elsewhere and Steven will be a lot freerer.

 

IMO, of course.

Despite special attention from defenders Gerrard has scored some brilliant goals against United (a good few season ago though), Chelsea and Arsenal in the past. The problem is that it is impossible to be brilliant against the top sides every time, and after the games in which he doesn't perform particularly well people like you start moaning and getting on his back.

 

For example Gerrard was outstanding against Chelsea at home this season and scored a brilliant goal against Arsenal; he was one of our better players in the return fixture at Chelsea but hasn't been great against what is far and away the team with the best defensive record in the league Manchester United, but neither has Torres or anyone else for us. Overall not bad, with defining games against Arsenal to come.

 

He wasn't great against United clearly, but it could have been very different because I'll tell you something that has been annoying me ever since the game on Sunday; that volley Gerrard struck when Kuyt laid it offf to him in the first half was f*cking flying in before it took the slightest deflection (off Vidic I think) to divert it over the bar.

 

Another day that goes in the top corner, Gerrard is the hero and the whole game works out differently. We actually played well for the first 15 minutes or so, and sometimes you need things to go right for you to, which obviously from there onwards they didn't at all as United gained more control of the game; when Mascherano went it was game over.

 

One thing we absolutely don't need is people moaning about Gerrard who has been great this season. Bearing this in mind can we change the competition to answers on a postcard to guess your age instead? Judging by your diction, spelling and the general intelligence behind this Gerrard post in calling him a 'bottler' I'd go for six and three quarters...

it's a shame the internet football forum wasn't about in the 80's, it'd be hilarious to see the d1ckheads railing against Ian Rush for not scoring against Man u.....

Maybe United don't let him play well.

That may well have happened other occasions but I didn't think that was the case in the first half on Sunday. He was giving away possession much too easily even when under little pressure and his workrate in closing down the likes of Carrick and Scholes when either dropped deep was disappointing.

Leaving the figures aside, do you think the team would be better off without him and replaced by, for example, Diego?

 

Don't really know who Diego is.

 

No I don't think the team would be better off without hi, he's one of the best players we have. However it's better off when he plays right midfield or inside forward and I reckon it would be better off if we had a better captain.

No.

 

We won't be selling Gerrard, not unless he wants to leave. It's not even worth talking about. He's one of the best players in the world, a local lad, our Capitan...

 

'nuff said.

But he wasn't English (his accent notwithstanding).

I don't want him sold at all, I'm as big a fan of his there are. I was asking John, who, it could be said has what appear to be issues with Gerrard that seem to go deeper than him having a poor game against Man Utd.
