Totally agree Girl.... Gerrard for me just doesn't merit an inclusion right now  ,the team this season have played better in his absence and that is a discernible fact ,every game now I have waited anticipating Gerrards return to his all conquering form ,but all to often I find myself loathe  to accept what is staring me in my disbelieving face he simply is resigned to failure where this season is concerned ,what is so alarming is this disinterested lethargic persona is something I never envisaged him displaying and its heartbreaking to watch ,I honestly will never feel the same sense of pride I used to feel when Gerrard took to the field displaying the assured  arrogance that came with knowing he was head and shoulders above the rest, and in turn he had enough talent to compensate for all the other inadequate players he shared the field with ........

I just think now given his almost meek participation in most games ,that we can ill afford to carry such a passenger albeit such a talented one ,I think the inclusion of Aquilani is imperative in these last few games ,I just think Gerrards attitude of late has had a debilitating effect on the whole team ,don't get me wrong I rate Gerrard on his day as one of the finest midfielders  in the world, its just that this accounts for nothing when if he  even  advocated given 60% he still would be the the best player on the field ,its just at this time I haven't seen Stevie give 40% of what he is capable of ,and if he goes to South Africa and is one of the tournaments most standout players then his betrayal in my eyes would have been complete .

Ok Gerrard is having an off season. He clearly has lost the drive to play. You seem to forget how much you were praising him at the beginning of the season, especially when he returned from injury.

What amazes me is how veteran supporters like yourself will point blame at a player and look to see him leave when he has given more than anyone (Carragher excluded) in the last 10 years. Not once have you blamed Rafa for any of the problems. Does not bad management of the club and continued failure have an effect on a players morale?

When other's heads dipped and lost motivation Stevie was there to lift them. I don't need to list off games where he has single handedly saved and motivated the whole team. Yet when he goes through that bad spell you want him benched or sold!?

Have a look at yourself. It's a disgrace.

if a player is going through a bad spell but hes still giving 100% then everyone will support him

if hes earning 100k a week and giving maybe 60% it dont matter how much youve done for the club you rightly should get a kick up the

I beg to differ your always quoting my posts everyone has been slating gerrard yet you pick out my post why is that?
Youve been at it for a long time now pack it in its getting tedious.

I know what the problems are at the club you dont need to tell me.

In no particular order:
1. Rafa
2. The players
3. The owners.

now go and bother someone else...............
