ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC"

[Lids1978]

Probably because he thinks he could get back into the team that way.

Or take over the RS job more like it and make himself player/manager

STEVEN GERRARD EXCLUSIVE: I might have stayed if Liverpool offered me the right job, reveals the Kop legend

So much for the media junkie, "its never about me, just the team" loving the anonymity of the States....another vanity project autobiography being serialised from tomorrow......

‘Yeah, I do miss it. I miss everything about it. When I switch on the TV and see the stadiums, with 50, 60, 70,000 people — the aggression, the intensity, the tension. I am jealous,’ admits Gerrard. .....‘I miss the build-up, competing with better players, I miss being Steven Gerrard, Liverpool captain and walking out in front of my people with that pressure and trying to get a result for them.
‘Liverpool replaced coaches Colin Pascoe and Mike Marsh in the summer, so they were looking for a new No 2, or No 3 or No 4. I would have been tailor-made to fill one of these roles, as well as making myself available as a squad player............
I’m telling people what happens backstage. People take their opinion of me based on what other people have said or written. But what happened after that slip? How did I deal with it? How have I learned to cope with it, to arrive here?’

Jesus tonight. A true Brent in the making. Watch your back Brendan.....hes copying you....the framed portrait is going up on the wall in L.A.

He is a very vein man. So much for "I'm just enjoying the lack of exposure" crap in LA. He is a complete media whore trying to yell "me me me" from over in America. The fact they've replaced him with James Milner must be painful though.

It is funny he is already trying to worm his way back into contention for Liverpool. This interview is perfectly times on the back of a heavy defeat and a trip to Old Trafford. Gerrard does nothing for "his people" he does it all for himself and like the true selfish no mark that he is, he's carefully waited his moment to go public with his alleged missing of the limelight.

A more humble person could have slid away to the quiet life of America. A decent human being, who values things beyond their own ego, who value their family etc. A human being with a bit of dignity. Gerrard is none of those things so finds it impossible and desperately wants to be centre of attention.

To answer some of your questions "stevie" that you ask at the end of the article. What happened after the slip? Well you put in a toothless display and still ended up losing to Chelsea's B team 1-0, largely down to your own inability to deliver on the big stage. You were then central to a team that threw away a 3 goal lead in the last ten minutes at relegation threatened Crystal Palace. As captain and defensive midfielder you neglected your duty to provide your defence protection. In essence, after your slip, you continued to make cock up after cock up to hand the league to your opponents. You then cost England the world cup, and put in the most shameful performance as an England captain that the country has witnessed in the hundred years of international football.

How did you deal with it? Well as I've said above badly. In your following season you then stunk the place out. You champions league campaign was a damp squid with 1 goal in open play for the entire team in 6 games. The best performance came when you were dropped from the team at Real Madrid. You threw a massive tantrum at that and undermined your manager and followed it up with a poor performance and home defeat in the next game.
Your last game against Manchester United you chirlisly ran on and got yourself sent off after 40 seconds for an assault, ending the slight glimmer of hope your side had of gaining champions league football in your absence from the team.

Your final home game in a reds shirt saw you hammered off the park 3-1 by the mighty Crystal palace. Your final game saw a shambolic surrender at Stoke, losing 5-0 at half time in one of he most one sided games of football ever witnessed in Britain. The fact they felt sorry for you and declared prevented a ten or twelve goal hammering.
So overall Stevie, your lack of professionalism meant you dealt with it very badly.

"How you learned to cope with it, how you ended up here". Stevie you were bombed out. Bombed out to a part time league equivalent to our championship. Nobody else wanted you. Arriving their is not some achievement, it shows how far you've fallen. The fact that you are barely mentioned should indicate to you just how desperate your fans were to get rid of you.

This is in the end why you weren't asked to stay as a coach. Your arrogance, ineptitude and inability meant you were a perfect fit to be bombed out never to return. You're only hope is to play on the stupidity of the Kops regulars, and I sense you will be quite adept at that, so I doubt we'd have seen the last of you. I can't wait for you to return as manager, you would take them down, much as Shearer did.

In essence the guy is an absolute d!ckface?

I've always wanted to do a masters in psychology. The deluded cult would be perfect for a thesis if I ever get around to doing it.

Mate, there isn't enough paper; and you don't have enough time on this earth to write the volumes upon volumes required to remotely describe the almost indescribable.

I'll bet these pyschologists know they'll be on a good wedge whenever one comes through their door in a RS shirt...

 

[tsubaki]

‘City won the first four games without a blemish, they spend £52million on the hottest property in Germany (Kevin De Bruyne). It makes them that little bit stronger, the little bit better, that little bit further ahead of Liverpool.’

That jumped out a mile.

His people.

He knows all the dog whistles that get the cult in a frenzy. They'll love all that, the belief a new Messiah will come. Gerrard pushing all the buttons and the mugs will lap it up.

 

[Dario Terracotta]

Stevie "Me" Laaaaa,that article just sums him up!

 

[Jags..class]

Haha typical Gerrard article.
So he now got dreams of being the rs manager, let's hope he a rubbish manager.

 

[PITA]

its not even hysterical, its....just........i dont even know the word i guess, how they have NO problems mocking United over people dying but take such MASSIVE umbrage whenever anyone says literally anything about Hillsborough, but then brush what they did at Heysel under the rug.

And get away with it.

 

[Whistlin' Dixie]

Haha typical Gerrard article.
So he now got dreams of being the rs manager, let's hope he a rubbish manager.

Seen plenty of his type come & go as managers. bryan robson, pearce, keegan (lol) etc, etc..........

 

[MikeH72]

Haha typical Gerrard article.
So he now got dreams of being the rs manager, let's hope he a rubbish manager.

He'll be an absolutely crap manager, but he'll still manage to inspire them to two world class performances per season against us

 

[Jacob]

Gerrard's derisory attempts at a 'look at me, the superstar' soundbite in that article.....
"Can’t be bad, can it? Sitting here having a Diet Coke in Los Angeles and Megan Fox walks in,’ says Steven Gerrard with a smile.

Doesnt quite hit the heights of this though does it, however much its parodied.......
The hotel bellboy who delivered champagne to Best's room and found him entertaining a scantily-clad Miss World on a bed covered with his winnings from the casino......
"So George, where did it all go wrong?"

The article also quotes his stark arrogance towards the new regime of coaches at the RS....
"Liverpool replaced coaches Colin Pascoe and Mike Marsh in the summer, so they were looking for a new No 2, or No 3 or No 4. I would have been tailor-made to fill one of these roles, as well as making myself available as a squad player".

Good job hes apparently not coming back on loan in their January recess then to have them coach him, according to the MLS Commissioner.... though personally I would love him to come back and upset their, even in September, tilting applecart. Be nice n icy then too.

 

[dublinbluenose]

He really is the embodiment of that club

 

[No8Bally]

Slippy is certainly touting himself for Bodger's job. Nothing more, nothing less.

 

[roydo]

Slippy is certainly touting himself for Bodger's job. Nothing more, nothing less.

Always amazes me that top football clubs even consider it a good idea to appoint ex players with zippo experience as a manager, to be their manager.

Would be a giggle if they did boot Rogers, who is bang average, and replace him with a bloke who has never scouted a player nor taken a training session.
