I sense it will be a Gerrard moment the FA cup final, I know we have to beat Blackburn then Villa but I see us doing it.
Maybe there will be one last thank you to Gerrard if the team get him there. Leave the club you love with an FA cup winners medal on your birthday. We have to do this for him after all those years of dragging us to medals in the past.

Can't say I like that really, I would have preferred Arsenal and that's of course IF we beat Blackburn.

We wIll struggle at ewood park! hipefully that tall lad that heads it well gets flu the night before.

No room for romance as far as I'm concerned, if we get there Gerrard should be a sub brought on for the last 5/10 minutes if we are winning comfortably, regrettably that's the reality of Gerrards performances this year.

If Gerrard comes back into the team and plays well then why should he not play in the next game?
You should judge him on his next performance and not previous performances this season.
Having said that, I do agree that we should not just shoehorn him back into the side because of who he is.
He has to impress in training like any other player.

Jonnybarnes - while that may be true that is what people are constantly doing to players. I think outside of Coutinho, Sterling, Sturridge and Henderson every single one of our players has been told by a large proportion of our fans on here at least that they either aren't good enough to start or aren't good enough to be at the club this season because of previous performances which as Ed001 has pointed out is mostly the fault of Rodgers early season tactical tinkering.

Sorry but the truth is that Gerrard is past his best by some way and when he has played in centre midfield this year it has cost us games, we can't afford any more slip ups and I'm afraid, legend or not, he doesn't deserve a start any more.

I agree that he is not a guaranteed starter. But if he gets a chance to come into the team through the injury or poor form of other players then why should he not stay in the team?

I've seen no evidence this season that Gerrard has anything left to offer than the occasional free kick or penalty. Other than that he has been a passenger, and that is painful to watch.
I would rather take a punt on Jordan Williams than Gerrard at the moment.
