How on planet Earth can you say that Steven Gerrard was overrated? He was a phenomenal player, and even managed to carry a bang-average Liverpool team to Champions League glory (they had Steve Finnan, Djimi Traore, and Milan Baros in the starting line up!). His all-round game was superb, and during his prime was getting Le Tissier-esque goal-scoring numbers every season. So many professionals credit him as the toughest opponent that they came up against, including our very own David Prutton.
As highly as I hold David Prutton's opinion I have never thought Gerrard was THAT good. Yes a good player, but not at the levels people always touted him at. I would've always had Lampard in my team ahead of him. Carried the Liverpool team to an extent but far too often to the detriment of the team for me, but hey opinions.
Felipe Anderson is a phenomenal talent, I've stopped getting excited over players we are linked to/sign as it is such a lottery.
Couldnt agree more...!!!.... Gerrard often flattered to deceive, was often slow and cumbersome, but at the same time had his good games, his biggest failing imho is that he stayed at Liverpool too long, he could've moved elsewhere and really pushed on but stayed to his detriment....as for Anderson, I usually ignore these comments too.... we're linked with alongside other clubs is usually code for "he's never heard of us" .....

You sound like how fans of other teams describe Le Tissier.![]()
hmmm......Ill accept that, only difference being that Fat Le Tissier never pretended to be anything that he wasnt; largely the reasons that he didnt defend were that he was too knackered and too slow to do so.......luxury player that you wouldnt be able to afford these days.....

Such a luxury that he scored 161 goals for us in 443 appearances, not to mention the assists and other chances he created for others. I don’t think many sides could afford not to have a player like that in the side, even nowadays.hmmm......Ill accept that, only difference being that Fat Le Tissier never pretended to be anything that he wasnt; largely the reasons that he didnt defend were that he was too knackered and too slow to do so.......luxury player that you wouldnt be able to afford these days.....

This was the mistaken idea that a succession of England managers had of him, hence the scandalously low amount of caps that he has. It has been said several times, but had he chose his other option of playing for France he would've been one of the superstars of the international scene.
Alan Ball was about the only English manager that "got him", just a shame that he was never the England manager.
Godders it's worse than that, we actually know our "parents" have the money - they just don't care about us humble "children".Well just look at that. 849 posts and not a hint or a whisper or even a smidgen of a deal for a genuine or real new player.I am deeply indebted to this thread for keeping me abreast of incoming transfers at SFC ie naff all. This thread is like writing a Christmas wish list knowing your parents are too skint or too mean to buy you anything.
