He always says the right things and is a true Red by heart, it was a pleasure to see his reactions during the Champions League Final in Istanbul and i would really love to see him back at the club some day.

I think Thommo should be much more appreciated.

So Thommo if you read this, you're a real legend, one of our all-time greats and it's a pleasure to see your passion for Liverpool FC time and time again.

Thommo i love you!

THOMMO STUNNED BY GERRARD U-TURN
Paul Eaton 06 July 2005

Former Liverpool captain Phil Thompson has admitted he is stunned with today's news that Steven Gerrard is remaining a Red.
Gerrard has performed an amazing overnight u-turn and committed his future to the club, only hours after informing them he wanted to leave.

Thompson is delighted with today's news but insists this situation shouldn't be allowed to happen again.

"I can't believe it, I'm still trying to get my head around what has happened," he said.

"I am delighted Steven is staying, I was speaking to him four or five days before pre-season training and there was no happier lad on Merseyside. He wanted to get a deal done, but he was a little concerned it was not done quicker. But it was only a side issue.

"He was absolutely delighted and looking forward to the start of the season.

"I don't know what happened in between, I wonder if anything was going on behind the scenes with an agent or something. I was absolutely gobsmacked on Sunday.

"Then it all happened on Monday. There seemed to be unbelievable events going on. His mind must have been all over the place, and it needed a step back and that's what the parties have done.

"But this cannot keep happening every 12 months, it does not do anyone any good. It needs to be nailed down once and for all."

agree with you theboyspen, but beware of narky heads on this thread!

LadyLala · « **Reply #13 on:** July 6, 2005, 10:53:50 am »

Lol. I agree about not cutting Thommo open.
(I'll rather cut Rooney open and check the colour of his blood. It's more doubtful.)

Hehe, glad to see that he probably went through the same kind of emotions as every one of us did. He's a true Red alright. Hope that the next time he sees Stevie, he'll knock some sense into him.

Christoph · « **Reply #14 on:** July 6, 2005, 10:55:52 am »

There have been many brilliant moments during the final in Istanbul but Thommo's reactions have to be up there with the best.

theboyspen · « **Reply #15 on:** July 6, 2005, 10:56:09 am »

Gonna take a helluva lot of knocking to get some sense into THAT lad!

Christoph · « **Reply #16 on:** July 6, 2005, 10:58:25 am »

Please don't turn it into a new Gerrard thread!

Just praise Thommo, that's what this thread is all about!

I would love to see his reactions during the finals. I've been hearing all about it but never really saw it with me own eyes.

Anyway I credit him for our Cup Treble.

Let me out, i want to be on the pitch. Thommo is just so cool. And just to add, what a top manager he was in his short spell.

The man is class and dignity personified. A real legend. All hail!

Vinay · « **Reply #27 on:** July 6, 2005, 02:25:07 pm »

Thommo is not the finest football tactician (if the rumour is true that he had problems with Fowler). But was there ever any doubt that he was a legend?

Heh that's the only bit that I've seen till date (I guessed as much that that must have been Thommo in the Sky Tribute). Is that in Istanbul? Reckon there's more from where that came from!

Aw was brilliant seeing him like that! Was proud for him. He can keep his nose held high... a Red through and through!

tedstriker · « **Reply #35 on:** July 6, 2005, 05:16:37 pm »

Thommo always gets behind the team, just what you want from an ex player.

I have to say that digger Barnes is another ex player who always keeps the faith.

Thommo is class, was gutted when he left.
