Sorry if this has been covered but what's the tapping up thing with Gerrard?
Thanks guys.

He wrote in his last book about contacting people like Kroos, Sanchez and Willian to see if they'd be interested in joining liverpool.

He wrote in his book that the club used to ask him to tap up players for us. So the club is now under intense scrutiny. It will probably put the club off from moving for Gotze or Zielinski as thet both keep claiming to have spoken to Klopp despite no official approach being made to their teams. Basically, thanks to Gerrard we are under the microscope.

Gerrard said in his bio that the club would ask him to convince potential targets to join the club. This is considered tapping up, and has put the club under scrutiny.

Also worth adding that previous regimes were really irresponsible to ask Gerrard to do that. He was just the muppet who admitted to the whole thing.

What management was in place for this.
Surely they'll be looked into also?

It happens all the time we aren't under any more scrutiny over this than anybody else.

Barca and Real players especially, do it all the time. They have their players tap up their national team teammates during international breaks hence, tapping up like Neymar did with Coutinho. Not saying it is right but just saying it happens all the time.

Easiest and best way will be heap the blame on Rodgers and say he instigated it. Its ok.

Other clubs do it, of course they do but that's irrelevant because a) they are inhave someoensingly getting punished for it and b) we hjave had somneone doing it for us bloody admit it!
