Well, one of the world's greatest strikers really meant what he said
above. Squad strength wise Liverpool were always lagging behind the top
guns like Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea. We had reliability in
the name of Xabi Alonso, sheer brilliance in the name of Luis Suarez and
of course the powerhouse Fernando Torres. The man above has always been
one of a kind. He has been criticized for all the wrong reasons. You
need to be a Liverpool Supporter to understand the weight of his
contribution for the club. He has motivated young stars from being a 19
year old pass out from academy to become a world class player. He has
helped a half dead team to wake up from a disaster and win a trophy as
important and big as the Champions League. He has sacrificed a career
full of trophies and accolades just to be a part of something which he
has been worshiping since his childhood days. Now that he is leaving,
leaving for good, that willingness to win a football game wearing the
famous red jersey will be missed. Ladies and gentlemen, Steven Gerrard.
