What a player who has given LFC so much. It’s time to support him and respect what must have been a very tough decision to make #SG08

Hard for the Steven Gerrard news to sink in. Amazing servant to Liverpool, arguably the best of all time. http://t.co/KBEPL3caGh — michael owen (@themichaelowen) January 2, 2015

I have nothing but admiration for #STEVENGERRARD as a player and a man but really I should resent him,his emergence ended my Lfc career!! — David Thompson (@77thomo) January 2, 2015
You know the kid at school who was brilliant but never quite made it. Before you hurl abuse imagine how good Gerrard must be. Think about it
