There have been many over the years.

The leveller against West Ham in 2006 has to be my favourite.

I went absolutely mental!

The absolute end of an era.

I'm 27 so the likes of Fowler were my earliest memories but Steve has been there growing up and into adulthood.

Against teams we were underdogs to you knew you always had a chance with him in the team. 2006-2009 are my favourite times as a Liverpool fan.

Legend!

You didn't enjoy 2005? <yikes>

Also, you're similar age to me and 2001 was def one of my favourite. I was 12 then when we did the "treble" and remember it very well
 
Stelling - "Will Gerrard be Liverpools player of the year Thommo?"

No... absolutely not. Why would he be <doh>

Well he is the top scorer to be fair. So it might be a fair question for someone who hasn't watched us a lot this season.
 
no..... leeds got one season out of him.. they imploded of course but he was toast really.

he went to city then but he was not the same player.

its like torres.. we got the most fee for him and he wasn't the same player again

That's a different issue. Fowler was never the same after leaving us.
 
For a player who isn't retiring or died, the messages from fellow professionals is overwhelming. Messages from the likes of Pirlo, Nesta, Baresi, Turan etc etc.

Incredible to see how big a star Stevie is/was.

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers believes his side will miss Steven Gerrard's determination and professionalism once he leaves the club
Team-mate Daniel Sturridge, who was unable to be present at Gerrard’s farewell due to injury, took to Twitter to pay a personal tribute to his captain.

"The greatest player to ever wear a Liverpool shirt,” he said. “Wish I was there to share his last moments and season with the club.

“He's taught me a lot about football on and off the field and made me feel welcome at the club on my first day when I was nervous and had no idea what to expect.
