England has never produced a truly world class player with the possible exception of Bobby Moore. In reality, Ireland has probably closer to world class in terms of Brady, O'Leary and McGrath.

Steven Gerard claim to fame is that performance to win the Champions League - other than that he was good - but that win alone made him a legend- sure half his career he was injured - his English record doesn't make him a legend at all!

Steven Gerrard isn't just a legend because he was a great footballer. He did so much good work for the Justice for the 96 group.

maybe true or just part of his media hype but it took over 20 yrs to make a donation to the "Justice for the 96 " fund even though a cousin (supposedly ) of his died in the hillsborough disaster (who were crushed to death by fellow liverpool fans )

Im not a Liverpool fan. And TBH I don't have much knowledge of the Hillsborough disaster, but I'm pretty sure that whole tragedy wasn't the fault of any Liverpool fans

well i think they carry some responsibility along with others , to say had no responsibility at all is absurd in my view

He has been a great servant to the cause and he was the primary force behind the lads winning the FA cup in 2006 and The Champs league the year previously ( I think Didi/Kaizer was hugely significant also!)!
But Stevie if you wisg to continue playing the time has come to move on to a less exacting league!
Actually, going back a few decades a few greats of the English game played LOI on retirement from serious footy!

BTW famous Stevie G story, he almost had a foot amputated as a 12 year old due to an injury sustained from kicking a ball from a broken bottle while having a kick around in the park!
