Strong rumours going around that Gerrard will announce very soon that he has signed a pre-contract with LA Galaxy and will join them at the end of the season.

If so I ask all Kopites to not remember the Gerrard of this last year: the slipper, the lack of speed in central midfield which has cost us in some games; but the captain, Istanbul, the FA cup final of 2006, the man of 2009 who Zidane claimed was the best in the world.

Are the rumours true then?

It's all over twitter at the minute. LA GALAXY looking most likely.
He'll always be a legend of the club
If it's true good luck stevie

I would say it all depend upon him.
My wife asked me this question today about Gerrard, now she is not a footballing person but knows the offside rule- if Gerrard knows that he has past it and the team is better without him why does he insist on playing almost every game? The only answer I could give is, may be he loves himself more that the club.
Now I don't want to remember Gerrard that way but I don't even want the club to fall more backwards then they are. He should do the honorable thing and move on, its best for everybody.

I have no idea if it's true or not, but Galaxy do have a DP slot open with Donovan retiring, so it makes a bit of sense from that perspective. Galaxy are my local team, so would be a bit torn about this one.

{Ed002's Note - They are certainly going to be one option.}

Me neither, Crazy> I know a player of his talent and calibre doesn`t get to where he is w/o having supreme belief in his own ability as ell as having an inflated ego. However if he knows he is past it and we are better w/o him YET he still wants to start every game and play 90mins, then the decision should be made for him by the club and release him with all the fanfare and honarable farewells a player and loyal servant of or club for almost 2 decades deserves.

Totally agree with you redohio but if the manager doesn't have the balls to do it and the owners are not football people, gerrard could take that initiative and do what's best for the club. I am very sure he is a very smart person and have a plan outlined for himself, why not take the right decision for the club he has been for 2 decades. There is no doubt about the talent he had, or the service he provided to LFC and trophys he has won for us, but i will always put LFC ahead of everything else.

Always talking sense as usual, Crazy. If the media is to be believed, SG is on his way to the Galaxy in MLS so maybe he has already made that decision which goes to your point of him being smart and knowing that his time is passed. As for BR not playing him, maybe this decision will change his MO and will now prob feel empowered to reduce SG`s role in the team. We shall see.
