I respect:

Gerrard: I know this whole transfer thing is getting people ******, but at the end of the day Gerrard could stroll onto any team in the world but chose to stay with us because of his love for the club.

Alonso: Could've gone to Real, but came here because he wanted to. It wasn't about money, it was about football. He has tremendous skill and will one day be regardest as a world XI regular for everyone.

Riise: I said on the day he first played for the Reds that he would one day be a top quality player and I still see this as true. He's never stopped learning and always shows desire and drive.

Carragher: Tireless, talented, tough as old boots and a real workhorse. I wouldn't let him go for £20m.

Baros: Has shouldered so much resposibility since Owen left and the Cisse's Blackburn experience. He doesn't have to be with us, but he stayed and continues to terrify defenders and I never want him to leave as long as he shows this kind of form.

I also respect cisse's due to the attitude he's adopted towards his injury and smicer for returning from a career threatening injury.

All the lads + Rafa deserve respect, I can not single out individuals.

Can I just add that I am so looking forward To Cisse/Morientes next season. I'm thinking like Rush/Dalglish, Toshack/Keegan

and Rafa Benitez, everyone got so wrapped up in the players they forgot about the man who pulls all the strings and fires up the players before every game. You praise Baros because he works 90 minutes on the pitch, while Benitez works 10 hour days just studying film and training the players.
