If Gerrard is coaching these youth players then they will never make that world cup.

When he says hard work, is he referring to his work shilling for the regime? Cos it's not hard work what he's doing coaching in that retirement league

He's talking about all the migrant forced labour, going into building the stadiums!

Not sure why anyone is surprised. When LFC was on the brink of administration, as club captain he was conspicuously and shamefully silent.

On the contrary, I'd have been surprised if he didn't bend over for the Saudis.

It will almost certainly be a requirement in his contract - same for all the European players and coaches who go over there. They will agree to put their names to certain communiques sent by the Saudi regime and release them as personalised tweets. They will also agree not to criticise anything to do with Saudi Arabia and its allies or show solidarity with any of its enemies. They are agreeing to be lapdogs in other words. I know Henderson said no such contract exists and he is free to express what he thinks, but he is surely lying.

100%.

They’re all the same. I have morals but if you pay me enough I have these other morals I can wheel out.

c*nts.

Henderson’s the worst but they are all reprehensible greedy amoral shills.

We should have a Kop banner like the six manager one, only with c*nts like Gerard, Henderson and fowler on, with a big fucking cross through their faces.

According to the Echo, Gerrard and Henderson hit a new low at the weekend. As Liverpool beat the Bitters in a sold out Merseyside Derby, they endured a 1-0 defeat in front of a crowd of just 696.

Well, at least they are out there changing the culture.  ::)

He has managed to sully his reputation for me and I don't see him the same way as before.

Stevie raiding us to help give him a boost in his stalled season

Quote
Liverpool coach Jonathan Robinson has departed the club after nine years - and moved to Steven Gerrard's Al-Ettifaq.

Robinson arrived at the Reds from Swansea City in 2014. He was recently under-16s head coach and assistant to under-21s chief Barry Lewtas while he had a spell as analyst for Jurgen Klopp's first team.

But Robinson has been poached by Al-Ettifaq, with Gerrard yet again raiding his former club after ex-captain Jordan Henderson joined the Saudi Arabia outfit in the summer transfer window. An Al-Ettifaq post on X said: "A new addition to the #Ettifaq family. We welcome Performance Analyst Jonathan Robinson."

I guess that reflected Liverpool glow was wearing off. But how poor of a manager are you that your club can "stall" in the Saudi league??

I think after his success at Rangers he genuinely thought he stood a chance of the Liverpool job after Klopp, no coincidence he took a Villa contract (to prove himself in the PL which he had to do) with an expiry that coincided with the end of Jurgen's contract.


That obviously all went pear shaped because he was shite at Villa, so, given he had no future with Liverpool, he burned all his bridges and took the money.


He goes down with all the Liverpool greats as a player, some of whom (Like Keegan) did not look back too much but he's very much in the past now, a player who provided some great memories but one (unlike Callaghan, Alonso, Hypia, Hansen etc) whose association with the club is firmly in the past (like Henderson)


Shame really but he's not bothered so why should we be too concerned. I am glad he took Henderson as he did us a favour, as for Jonathan Robinson, who knows, but I doubt it.

He looked a bit shamefaced. He was almost certainly told by his paymasters to refer to Ronaldo in those terms. He'll be hoping that football fans - especially Liverpool fans - won't notice.

Which is why I'm not going to do anything to spread the news.

I wonder what it is worth for Gerrard to have his Liverpool reputation dragged through the shite, what is that sort of thing worth in cash terms.
Once he realises that there is no way back, he may realise what he has lost.
