I have to add that Salah cannot hold a torch to Stevie as much as I love him. Stevie never performed as bad as Mo has the past year got to be said. Salah has done wonderfully well for Liverpool but is no Steven Gerrard.

Some rose tinted glasses there you've got.

Speak for yourself. Salah has years left in the tank and has already eclipsed Gerrard for me.

Salah has been consistent bar a 6 month period Gerrard had his off times as well all players do.

Two great players playing two different positions why compare?

One things for sure though, Gerrard is a terrible manager.

He's being sarcastic i think.

For a good 10 years LFC was known as Steven Gerrard FC. When Gerrard did play with actual footballers (Alonso, Torres, Mascherano) He was simply unstoppable. The best midfielder in Europe by a country mile.
There would be many Salah’s along the way. But only one Steven Gerrard.

Yes but we have transitioned from a one man team innStevie’s day to one of the best club sides in the world.

Not going to get into personality issues but under Klopp and his coaches we have a much better foundation than most clubs.

It would be a terrible mistake to have Stevie back at LFC in any capacity other than as a club ambassador for hospitality on match days.

Stevie played with inferior players for most of his career. Only till alonso and Torres came along did we see how good he was.

So he was happy being a big fish in a small pond? Lacked ambition? For me, and as much as it would've hurt, he should have went to Chelsea in 05 and won the lot. It was quite clear back then that we weren't anywhere near going to win a title ever. Fluke a cup here or there but never good enough to sustain a 38 game challenge. In my opinion he lacked ambition by not moving on. I wonder does he secretly, somewhere deep inside himself, regret it?

How do you fluke a cup?
People who criticize Gerrard for staying at his home town club his whole career, or who criticize Shearer for picking Newcastle over Manchester United don't really get what it means to support a football club and how much more it would mean to win one major trophy with that club than multiple trophies somewhere else.
If I was lucky enough to be a professional footballer and lucky enough to play for Liverpool I would never want to leave no matter how bad the team was and no real Liverpool supporter would disagree.

Jfc, Mane what did you want from the bloke? Whined about him leaving in another thread and now you're having a dig cos he didn't leave 10 years earlier when he was at his peak.

Never "whined" about him leaving. I said he left the club twice which is fact. Maybe Frank wants to get the "golden generation" back together at Goodison? Already has Cole there.

I think we would have been more successful under the Rafa years if Gerrard had been more of a team player and not such a spoilt brat. There is a reason he is called Stevie Me by some. I always preferred Alonso as a player. Mind you Lucas is my favourite player so what do I know.

Mane are you even a scouser lad? Or a fan? Lacked ambition my arse. As thunderbird said why would you want to leave your boyhood club? Besides the pressure he was under in his own city he still stayed. I hope klopp brings him back to the club takes him under his wing. Give you something to cry about .

Players are having so much say in there clubs that they can now down tools and get the manager the sack which looks to me that is what has happened at villa. Also you need the right team behind you and not friends you need people to tell you what you may not want to hear .
Have diffrent ideas in
coaching styles Stevie G did not have that when Mick Beal left villa he did not replace him but went for ex lfc connection .
Stevie needs to cut the cord with LFC and find his own way.

Different players in different positions in different eras and differing types of teams. Incomparable, what I will say is that I don’t think Salah can play the wing anymore, needs to be up top which is why I think he has been better these last few weeks. I’m not convinced 442 is the formation for us long term with the players we have available, but so long as it’s getting results fairs do’s.
