Those who DON'T Want Gerrard are Brainless!!

Top notch player. Had a terrible season by his own lofty standards.

It's hard to say he wouldn't add huge amounts to the team in the immediate short term, but he would be 30 by the time he kicked a ball in anger and we would be spending £40m on him. He's not a technical player in the mould of a Scholes or Giggs, his game is based on energy and power as well as ability. How well will that hold up as he gets into his 30s? Would you want him if he lost the ability to burst past his man?

He would be 34 or 35 by the time his contract finished; can you honestly see him being world class at that age? Considering he'd cost £40m- ish and earn around £7m a year, the total outlay would be £70m+. It's a mind boggling sum of money for 1-2 years of quality and no resale value, only worth sanctioning if (a) you seriously think he'd push us into the title winning bracket and (b) he brought Torres with him.

Given the fact he's expensive and ageing and really not worth much to anyone who doesn't have a mega rich owner, he's arguably more valuable to us sitting on Liverpool's books as his value declines rapidly. Why help them out by giving them lots of money for an asset that is losing value rapidly?

It's tempting, but on balance I'd say no.

Not sur finance comes into it. We need a player who could take us up another level.

Gerrard of 2 years ago would be the ideal player. The Gerrard of this season has been poor. Crux of it is is this season a blip, or a sign of things to come? Sufficient doubt in my mind to look elsewhere. I'd prefer to buy a young player like Milner who could grow into the role. I honestly feel that if Michael Johnson gets fit he could offer us more than the current Gerrard
 
I don't want Gerrard because I think his best years are behind him.

It's not rocket science.
 
He's just had the worst season of his life. Is a right thug, already had one court case this season. Would cost a heap of money, which younger players could be bought.

Yeah, must be brainless to not want him.

my thoughts are that those who dont want gerrard to play for us are simply stupid. he is a world class midfielder and is liverpool. that team would be nothing without him. we would be daft not to go for him this summer, with him not at his happiest and liverpool finishing in 7th place this year.
he is exactly what we need, a box to box midfielder that can score, assist and work his socks off for the team. we have nobody like this in his position. and insted of having two cm's and 2 wingers we would have
