  • i almost posted this on saturday after the game but typed it and deleted
    having now read the LFC fans forum I feel more confident posting it

    gerrard in the number 10 role ? , back to his attacking midfielder role of old
    when gerrard was moved forward on saturday after lucas came on he really seemed to change the game, he had so much more influence in the attacking 3rd, it was like the stevie g of the early 2000's ( well nearly )
    collecting, beating a man and putting through a decisive accurate through balls
    wonder if stevie g can play that role again, quarter back from a position forward of his line guards and tight ends

    once can is fit again he could move to that, in front of the defence QB role, his performance for the german U21's ( the game he got injured in ) was sublime as a holding midfielder, he also did the whole box to box thing beautifully in that game too

  • From an objective POV - it really seems with Gerrard that Liverpool FC and it's fans are just trying to find a role for him where he won't be too much of a liability - at the expense of the team.

    Liverpool already have a number of players who are more suited to the role of number 10, why stifle them on behalf of a player who should be used sparingly anyway (especially given he's not fit). He's not going to be able to play 90mins of 40 games a season any more, so why (other than for sentimental reasons) would you build a team around him?
