    His trophy haul isn't as great as Liverpool players from the 70s and 80s but all the trophies he has won, he's been a major part of all of them and close to being the main reason we won almost every single one of them.

    And I think with Gerrard context is important. He's 34 now, 35 in May, and he was still expected to be the go to guy in the team this season when we were struggling. His legs aren't what they used to be but either are Terry's. Difference is Mourinho is looking after Terry and is making sure he has enough protection around and in front of him. What's happening with Gerrard under Rodgers is the same thing that happened with Terry under AVB. I have no doubt that if Gerrard was playing under Mourinho he'd still look fantastic and he'd manage to utilise his passing, goalscoring threat and set piece ability without exposing his lack of pace.

  3. So you think we only start scouting once a player actually leaves? And you think I'm the silly one? <laugh>

    And you added the last bit knowing full well that was what I was saying #mustbeyourpointnowthough <doh>

    Says the fan of the club who went into administration in all but name a few short years back.

    If Lukaku leaves Everton it'll be for a fee that gives us a profit, otherwise he won't be leaving.

    When players leave it's definitely on Everton's terms and they are not at all only informed of it via their new club's press office <ok>

    Are you currently speaking as a Man Utd fan because there's no way you just said that as an Everton fan

    I have been probably guilty of a careless comment or two, but in the end we have missed him in games and you can't blame gerrard for getting older and can't blame Rodgers for depending on Gerrard too. The season was a write off and the lads and Brod made it interesting by working hard and getting on a run, did they get any ****ing credit for it.. no <doh> It was all forgotten after the Arsenal game by some.

    My only issue with Gerrard is his insistence on shooting when he has better options, but at his age, can we really blame him trying to get a few goals at the death.

    We are all armchair fickle ****s at the end of the day, shouting at professional athletes from our sofas roaring at them about how best to do their jobs <laugh>

    Because we've had more

    As a percentage you're way ahead. Who has ever had a decent season for Everton and not left? The #bottler Baines comes to mind a couple of seasons ago. Who else?

    Selling players that don;t want to stay doesn't make you a selling club lad. But you already know that.

    You on one hand will tell us it was stupid to make Suarez stay and call us a selling club too

    Which is it then? <laugh>

    Let me educate you for free, a selling club is one that buys players to use for a time and make a profit on them seling them on if they are any good, and use their academy to bring talent through to sell to the bigger clubs.

    VERY simple in that case you stand up and openly call out the others who have ****ed it up and deliver the ultimatum.

    Rodgers WAS the genius in the press who got 2nd. if he'd have walked over it he'd swan into another job but if FSG backed down he could get shut of the whole damned lot of them and take over.

    Do you really beleive that is the way to handle it?

    No, you have a problem, you don't play the blame game, you move on. We move on. No ultimatums. Fix the problem and move on.
    Rodgers can't give anyone **** about balo if he was stitched up with him because he signed Lovren. Lovren has been a disaster. Sticking with Lovren has cost us points and Moreno has not worked out at all this season either. That is where Brod really failed. Given that he can't start pointing fingers at anyone can he.

    Tobes I swear your bitterness leads you off on some serious tangents. You are transparent though, not here for banter or a laugh or even to discuss football. You are here to do forum combat because everyone in your gaff is sick of listening to you <laugh>
