It's great that you summon God-like powers and influence for big finals, Steve; but games like this in the league should be treated the same.

Jesus mate he's rescued us time and time and time again this season and it's still not enough Feck me what's he got to do?

If we'd left him on against Wigan he probably would have rescued us again as well. He generally does.

What has Gerrard ever done for us?

Xerxes: What exactly are the demands?
Reg: We're giving Parry two days to dismantle the entire apparatus of Liverpool FC and if he doesn't agree immediately we execute Gerrard.
Matthias: Cut his head off?
Francis: Cut all his bits off, send 'em back every hour on the hour... show him we're not to be trifled with.
Reg: Also, we're demanding a ten foot mahogany statue of Fernando Torres with his hanging out.
Stan: What? They'll never agree to that, Reg.
Reg: That's just a bargaining counter. And of course, we point out that they bear full responsibility when we chop him up, and... that we shall not submit to blackmail.
Omnes: (Applause) No blackmail!
Reg: They've bled us white, the . They've taken everything we had, not just from us, from our fathers and from our fathers' fathers.
Stan: And from our fathers' fathers' fathers.
Reg: Yes.
Stan: And from our fathers' fathers' fathers' fathers.
Reg: All right, Stan. Don't labour the point. And what has Gerrard ever given us in return?
Xerxes: Goals.
Reg: Oh yeah, yeah he gave us that. Yeah. That's true.
Masked Activist: And the assists!
Stan: Oh yes... assists, Reg, you remember what the team used to be like.
Reg: All right, I'll grant you that the goals and the assists are two things that Gerrard has done...
Matthias: And the tackles...
Reg: (sharply) Well yes obviously the tackles... the tackles go without saying. But apart from the goals, the assists and the tackles...
Another Masked Activist: Headers...
Other Masked Voices: cups...  LEAGUE CUP... FA CUP...
Reg: Yes... all right, fair enough...
Activist Near Front: And the CHAMPIONS LEAGUE...
Omnes: Oh yes! True!
Francis: Yeah. That's something we'd really miss if Gerrard left, Reg.
Masked Activist at Back: UEFA cup!
Stan: And he can play almost anywhere.
Francis: Yes, he certainly knows how to play football... (general nodding)... let's face it, he's the only one who could in a place like this.

(more general murmurs of agreement)
Reg: All right... all right... but apart from goals,assists and TACKLES and cHAMPIONS LEAGUE and FA cup's and League cups and uefa cups and playing anywhere... what has Gerrard done for us?

I could evoke more sense from a packet of Scampi Fries than this lot.

Does that make me a "yoghurt"?

Two weeks ago I'd have agreed with you about devaney, but he's nice to me these days so I'm happy to admit I was wrong about his football knowledge, he's an expert.

The other guys are all extremely knowledgeable in my experience

Stay off the crack, Mick.

It makes you chat b*llocks.

Never touch the stuff Lando. Just say no.

I talk b0ll0cks without any artificial assistance whatsoever, you've known me long enough to know that's true mate

That said i did used to like a bit of spliff when I was young bloke. Feck me you shoulda heard me then, Jesus.



Anyway, all that aside I'm glad you're on. You would have known you'd cop a bit of flack and you're still about. Fair play.

I'd love to know what Gerrard thought about being taken off.

and yet you have entered the debate, it is impressive though how you never actually answer a question, just rely on insulting and belittling people, you are such a plus for this forum imo.
