What sort of an idiot gets sent off after 40 seconds. I've waited till now as I was so annoyed to post sooner.
Steven Gerrard is the greatest idiot on the planet, I'm sorry to all his lovers but how can you be that stupid.
This was a very aggressive player showing his lack of brains and then went looking for Sky Sports after the match to apologise for what? For being a thug and giving the very worst message to millions of kids who watch and/ or support Liverpool.
Not a legend anymore in my eyes, he could have ruined the guys career with that assault and now hundreds of thousands of kids watched their hero do that. Disgraceful, this game has given him so much and no one should act like that. Roy Keane is still vilified for his tacle on Alf Inge Haaland, our captain was just as nasty and I for one am disgusted. This is sport, if he did that on the street he would be arrested. What a terrible way to finish your career with our great club.

He'll put in a motm performance before the end of the season, then people will be saying "how can we let such a legend leave".
These things happen, but 1 act of stupidity does not deflect 16 years of absolute brilliance. He's in the dog house and he knows it, so move on.

think your going the top there and too call him u have no respect for one of our best ever players

Is this meant to be parody or something?

I think it is extreme to compare Gerrard's stupid stamp to Roy Keane setting out to end Haaland's career the next time they met. I agree with what you're saying to a degree, it was a massive let down to the remaining ten men who arguably dominated United during the second half, along with millions of LFC supporters all over the world. I'm confused as to why he did it, he wasn't even on the pitch long enough to be frustrated by any of their players to have done it with a hot head. I don't understand why he would stamp on another player after the whistle had blown, 100% on purpose. What a d*ck. I think it's unfair to suggest he is no longer an LFC legend because of this incident. I feel sad for him really, he had an awful end to last season, then a terrible World Cup, and a shocking start to this season and the realisation that age is catching up with him. I find it really shocking that fans of football can mock the fact that with all his quality he has never won the league. Now this has happened, his last year at the club has to be the worse of his career, and he only has himself to blame. He's probably not feeling too clever right now.

Stupid yes but Herrera could have broke stevies leg the frustration was with BR what a poor manager he is the sooner he goes the better

It was stupid and probably cost us any glimmer of hope that we had to win that game (and to be fair, if the 1st 45 minutes was anything to go by we were not going to get anything). It was brainless and, in what was probably one of the most pivotal games of the season, showed an incredible lack of control. I think it is really harsh to use that one incident, however, to write off/tarnish his entire career at the club. I know that he is a bellend off the pitch and, as a person, I don't think very highly of him but, as a player, he has been immense for us. Letting one incident overwrite that seems very unfair.

I think you needed to wait a little longer to calm down mate. Keane's 'tackle' (and the admitted intention) was one that happens once a generation if that, what Gerrard did happens 5-10 times a season. Was disgusting and the ban is fully deserved but potentially career ending (beyond any stud forward challenge) and no longer an LFC legend because of it? Come on
26 Mar 2015 09:27:36
Behave. Stevie went a bit sunday league on the fella. I'm glad someone showed a bit of b-llocks as they were strolling around Anfield making us look like a bunch of girls.
Just a shame the linesman spotted it, LOL.

I don, t think it was the pressure of the game getting to him at all, everyone seems to be questioning if he was frustrated through not playing or what ever.
I believe he did it thinking he would get away with it, United were all over us up to that point and I think he came on with the frame of mind "they aren't having it all their own way".
So what do you do when your being bullied off the ball? Let them know that your not going to roll over and let them do it, he threw a hard challenge in against mata then stood on herrera. He's admitted going in with hard challenges before same thing here only the ref sussed him.

You better go watch Keanes career ending assault on poor Alf Inge HÃ¥land again mate, and if u still think gerrards stomp is just as bad, u should start watch water polo or something instead of fotball because you obviously has no clue.
26 Mar 2015 16:39:01
McgoveB sorry but that was highly contradicting, a disgraceful stamp, yes and yes there would have been plenty of children watching so how can you bash him to have the guts to face the media to apologise and To take full responsibility is the best thing he could have done, I am not defending his stamp at all because theoretically that stamp could cost us top 4.the fact that you no longer consider a man who has carried this club for most of his career is more disgraceful than the stamp itself imo, you should go support Real Madrid you'd fight right in with their fans. People have tempers if you didn't put footballers on such a high pedestal you'd probably reason they're actually human themselves

SG was not the main reason we lost. had BR sorted out the tactics after 20 mins, maybe the red card doesn`t even happen. BR has to be proactive and not reactive when it comes to tactical situations
26 Mar 2015 21:11:15
He was A reason we lost though.
He has to take his share of the blame.
And Skertl was stupid as well.
2 senior pro's now not available for 3 games due to their own stupidity.
26 Mar 2015 21:42:55
I still stand by my opinion that gerrard should have been put out to pasture a couple of years ago. He's just not good enough any more.
