Difficult to know what to believe.
In today's paper, I read that Parry allegedly made a verbal deal with Gerrard. It is reported that at the beginning of last season Gerrard wanted only a 1 year extension to his contract, whereas Parry wanted 2. Parry added that if he signed for 2 years and Liverpool did not show a marked improvement during the last season, then Gerrard could go if he wanted. Scraping into 4th place and 30 points behind Arsenal is not considered an improvement, so Gerrard is going to call in this deal.
Scum fans can put round whatever they want about how he's off to OT, however they were confident of getting Shearer too, and it never happened. There is no way he will go there. He wants to join a team that has a chance of winning trophies, and that's Arsenal or Chelsea.
