Trent’s competition would be clowns like Walker and Neville while Gerrard would have to compete with the likes of Scholes, Viera, Keane, Toure, KDB, Lampard…
Yeah ok, in that case, depending on what makeup of team you would like, Gerrard couldmiss out. You will find though that almost all of Gerrard’s contemporaries would probably have Stevie in their PL all time starting eleven. Plenty of clips of the likes is Scholes, Ferdinand, Neville etc lauding Gerrard
Finnan was an excellent full back, also Arbeloa, who did it at Madrid, neither are clowns, may not have Trents vision or passing, but by far both are better on the defensive side whilst being good in possession.
Maybe.
Maybe the announcement before the end of the season by Trent was ill advised? Gave everyone the opportunity to vent.
But the leaving on a free seems to rankle right enough.
“Speaking to the players, the manager, the owners, they were all incredible and showed amazing support and were a huge help. We had an amazing conversation in the last couple of days with the owners, they were very warm and welcoming and thanked me for everything I gave in service to the club. They wished me well on my future journey and what I wanted to do and said I am always welcome back at the club at any point.”
“Being at Liverpool for so long and experiencing everything what I did and what I had was incredible and knowing it was coming to an end and it was always going to be emotional for me. But I went out in a way I was happy about, the send-off I got, the way the club treated me, the way the fans were as well was outstanding, I couldn’t say a bad word.”
Gerard literally carried the team during the worst ownership fiasco versus Trent having world class players all around him and the best financially responsible owners. Like to see TAA do 1/10th of the work Gerrard did.
