The twilight of Steven Gerrard

[New York Red]

Stevie has always thrived on gut bursting runs, massive work-rate, and unbelievable enthusiasm on top of his incredible talent and vision.

 

But players like Stevie take an incredible amount of abuse, and have a lot of miles on them. His current injury, on top of his occasional brittleness in my mind is a sign of things to come. Stevie will be 30 by the end of this season. Reasonably speaking, even if he doesn't have surgery this season, he will have 2-3 more seasons left in him. Given our teams condition, and the disarray with our ownership, I'm fearful that Stevie will retire having never won the title.

 

That my friends is a true tragedy and it is a realistic one.
