Stevie Geraaaaaaard

[Wooders]

None of your arguments have even made me waver from my position. He's a crock and too old and wouldn't fit in.

We need a star of the future, not a star of 2005.

You'd swear he was pushing 40. He's 29 going 30 and fit as fuck.

32 year old Frank Lampard bang in shitloads again this season. I'd snap him up in a second as well.

here here mate, people not wanting gerrard but drooling over torres is baffling

[Sister of fu]

We have been saying for a long time that we lack a leader, a player that can grab players buy the scruff of their necks and drag them with him and I see Stevie G as that player, fans that say they would not have him are deluded and lack football knowledge.

When was the last time that we have a central midfielder that could get you 20-25 goals a season.......never. What was the goal outlet from our central midfield this season?? Less than 5? Teams that have that driving force from the center, U***d have Scholes, Chelsea have Lampard, Arsenal have Fabrgras and Pool have Gerrard tend to win tropies or at least qualify for the Champs league.

Like i said i dont feel we have a chance to sign him but for people to say that they wouldnt or he is not good enough do make me LOL.....

He will be 30 before he kicks a ball for us.
Spent the last 2 seasons being dogged by injury or playing injured.
A Liverpool fan and player, never put in the same level of performance and desire no matter where he goes.
Got 9 goals this season, and 2 were penalties.
Scholes is 35, Lampard would suffer from the same syndrome as Gerrard, yes to Fabregas though.
He will cost a ludicrous amount and I consider it at this stage to not only important to win, but to make sure other teams lose.
With Gerrard they failed to make the Champion's League, they have never won the league with him no matter how good the squad was.
Mancini has already stated he will be buying younger players to build a team for the next decade, a policy I agree with wholeheartedly.
Finally he would have to change into our 4-4-2 system where Tevez would be occupying the same space as him, making the same movement as him and suffer the same drop in form as Ireland has trying to cope with the same system.

And while I said finally and lied, SoF, fuck you, you think because you play a bit of women's football you have this godlike footballing knowledge, just because we don't want a player may have numerous other reasons other than ability and just cause you didn't think they were important to mention...or maybe not think of, doesn't mean the rest of us missed it. I believe we very much need a forward thinking midfielder, but I think we need OURS.

Oh my God Slim where did this little piece come from your arse hole.

As for the rest of your post:

He will be 30 before he kicks a ball for us: And what does 30 mean the end of his career, look at Frank Lampard and a certain ginger twat that plays across the way.

Spent the last 2 seasons being dogged by injury or playing injured: Yeah but played 32 times 09/10 and 31 times in 08/09.

A Liverpool fan and player, never put in the same level of performance and desire no matter where he goes: And what facts do you have to back this up??

Got 9 goals this season, and 2 were penalties: Gareth Barry 2 goals, Steven Ireland 2 goals, Paddy V 1 goal, so looking at it he scored more on his own than our central midfielders.

Scholes is 35, Lampard would suffer from the same syndrome as Gerrard, yes to Fabregas though: I didnt say that we should buy the other 3 just said that we need to goal scoring centre mid like all the top teams have. Scholes not so much now but back in the day there was no one better.

He will cost a ludicrous amount and I consider it at this stage to not only important to win, but to make sure other teams lose.
With Gerrard they failed to make the Champion's League, they have never won the league with him no matter how good the squad was: Yeah but how many times prior to this season have they made the Champions League, he has also won more trophys then we care to dream about and they came very close the league last yera. I put the failings in the campain down to one man and one man only Rafa.

Mancini has already stated he will be buying younger players to build a team for the next decade, a policy I agree with wholeheartedly: So why sign Paddy??

Finally he would have to change into our 4-4-2 system where Tevez would be occupying the same space as him, making the same movement as him and suffer the same drop in form as Ireland has trying to cope with the same system: I would happily change our system to accomdate Steven Gerrard but i would also not place him in the same league as Steven Ireland who has had one good season and say that he will suffer the same fate as i dont think he would

Very highkly experienced midfielder. 29 is not an old age for a midfielder like Gerard!

If we signed him, Id be very happy.

Your Uncle dont seem to think so...i wonder if he will have a dig at you too??

Uncle my arse.

Lets these Aussies dream.

I am actually stunned at the nose turning of some of our fans. The fans have moaned and moaned all season about the lack of creativity in the centre of the park and how all are current central mids are defensive minded, we are then linked with a world class goal scoring centre mid and its "he not good enough" and "he's far to old" Utter bollocks!!!

It's not like there are loads of them available eh?

You are so far wrong about so many things, but the one I am most offended by, I am not that fucker's uncle. I am his gf's uncle and great uncle to his child, but NOT HIS. Not until they get married anyway...BTW Ric got some more pics, brilliant stuff, Ellie wallpaper is coming.

[Slim]

He will be 30 before he kicks a ball for us: And what does 30 mean the end of his career, look at Frank Lampard and a certain ginger twat that plays across the way. And yet it's the end of his career, like I said give me a 25yo Gerrard and we DO need the position strengthened, but 30yo and he is not going to get any better and every injury runs a higher risk of seriously affecting his performance, giving him a longer recovery, or ending his career.

Spent the last 2 seasons being dogged by injury or playing injured: Yeah but played 32 times 09/10 and 31 times in 08/09. And looked well underpar while doing so, people are basing their opinion on Gerrard from five years ago and excuses have been made for poor form(and rightly so) but that's all they are in the end.

A Liverpool fan and player, never put in the same level of performance and desire no matter where he goes: And what facts do you have to back this up??Gareth Barry

Got 9 goals this season, and 2 were penalties: Gareth Barry 2 goals, Steven Ireland 2 goals, Paddy V 1 goal, so looking at it he scored more on his own than our central midfielders.Yes, we need one, again not debating this point...you missed mine.

Scholes is 35, Lampard would suffer from the same syndrome as Gerrard, yes to Fabregas though: I didnt say that we should buy the other 3 just said that we need to goal scoring centre mid like all the top teams have. Scholes not so much now but back in the day there was no one better.Yes, we need one, again not debating this point..you missed mine...again.

I put the failings in the campain down to one man and one man only Rafa.I care to dream about winning the league...in fact that's the one I want above all others. So he has one of them does he?

Mancini has already stated he will be buying younger players to build a team for the next decade, a policy I agree with wholeheartedly: So why sign Paddy??He came out yesterday and said this, I think Paddy was signed in January....lemme see, yes yes, January is before May. I guess we could all get in that time machine that has you all stuck in 2005 and get him to say it then, but I think it'd be taken out of context considering he wouldn't be City manager.

Finally he would have to change into our 4-4-2 system where Tevez would be occupying the same space as him, making the same movement as him and suffer the same drop in form as Ireland has trying to cope with the same system: I would happily change our system to accomdate Steven Gerrard but i would also not place him in the same league as Steven Ireland who has had one good season and say that he will suffer the same fate as i dont think he would I would prefer not to retool the entire side to accomodate a 30yo, especially when the one player who won't be happy about it scored 29 goals for us this season.

Feel free to miss the points over and over again, that was refreshing...wait, that's not the word, EXPECTED, that's it.

Ta very muchly Slimmy Mc Slim! Dont be so offended you should be fucking grateful that you are recognised as my uncle man, Im fucking unique in this country.

There's a reason there is only one of you, it's not a good thing and just cause your mum tells you you're special, it might not be a compliment.

Name 5 that are available that we have a chance of signing.

Gerrard wouldnt even have to move house man.

What you on about Sven? ;-)

I was agreeing with S o Fu and saying we should buy Gerrard if at all possible.

[Vhero]

Unbelievable this topic it just shows how far the club has come... There's no way a team like West ham would say no..

Sorry Kladze, theres that much sarcasm around lately I could hardly take your post seriously, I take it back! :-)

No worries mate - just wanted to clear up any ideas that I might be somewhat a lunatic ;-)

[CityGer]

Baffled by some of the opinions on this. Not only is he a class act and one of the very best in the world in his position but he plays in the position that we are in most need of strengthening. He's is absolutely 100% what we are crying out for.

Really can't understand the scepticism on this one.

I don't atually think he'd join another premier league club but if we have a chance of signing him then we should do whatever it takes.

I am going to sit back now and see if you get some personel abuse for wanting to sign a world class player and for saying that you are baffled by supports views on this.









I bet you dont!!!

Yeh me to! Debating whether or not we would want Gerrard is pretty ridiculous. If he wanted to come we should do everything in our power to get him here. He's one of the top 5 midfielders in the world and the exact type of player we're desperately crying out for.

I dont see it happening as I think he'll want to play abroad rather than for one of Liverpool's Premiership rivals but you never know. Either way he's leaving Liverpool. Thats pretty clear.

[carl_feedthegoat]

He won that CL on his own due to his scouse blood running through his veins.
You have to be deluded if you think he will be performing for us like he has done for the scouse over the last few years.

Its a 100% no from me.

agreed. I acknowledge his ability, but i want players whose hearts will be in it for City - and i cannot see how Gerrard's could be.

He's a born winner and a top athlete. Thats what spurs him. I think there's much more to him and his success as a footballer than just being a passionate Liverpool supporter.

He will be 30 before he kicks a ball for us: And what does 30 mean the end of his career, look at Frank Lampard and a certain ginger twat that plays across the way. And yet it's the end of his career, like I said give me a 25yo Gerrard and we DO need the position strengthened, but 30yo and he is not going to get any better and every injury runs a higher risk of seriously affecting his performance, giving him a longer recovery, or ending his career. I cant disagree but he is well worth the gamble at 30yrs. He has the quality to push us to the next level.

Spent the last 2 seasons being dogged by injury or playing injured: Yeah but played 32 times 09/10 and 31 times in 08/09. And looked well underpar while doing so, people are basing their opinion on Gerrard from five years ago and excuses have been made for poor form(and rightly so) but that's all they are in the end.Do we as City fans watch enough of him to come to the conclusion??08/09 he scored 16 prem goals not bad for someone having a shit season. As for this year have you seen the dross he plays with, that lot would make Messi look like a pub player.

A Liverpool fan and player, never put in the same level of performance and desire no matter where he goes: And what facts do you have to back this up??Gareth BarryYou cant point to GB and say the SG will be the same its not really a fact is it!!

Got 9 goals this season, and 2 were penalties: Gareth Barry 2 goals, Steven Ireland 2 goals, Paddy V 1 goal, so looking at it he scored more on his own than our central midfielders.Yes, we need one, again not debating this point...you missed mine.And your point was???

Scholes is 35, Lampard would suffer from the same syndrome as Gerrard, yes to Fabregas though: I didnt say that we should buy the other 3 just said that we need to goal scoring centre mid like all the top teams have. Scholes not so much now but back in the day there was no one better.Yes, we need one, again not debating this point..you missed mine...again.Didnt miss you point was just confused to what syndrome you was refering to?? Was it A) lampard would also be shite if he played in the this current Liverpool team and you would not buy him or B)That Lamps is a Chelsea fan and would not want to perform for another EPL club

He will cost a ludicrous amount and I consider it at this stage to not only important to win, but to make sure other teams lose.
With Gerrard they failed to make the Champion's League, they have never won the league with him no matter how good the squad was: Yeah but how many times prior to this season have they made the Champions League, he has also won more trophys then we care to dream about and they came very close the league last yera. I put the failings in the campain down to one man and one man only Rafa.I care to dream about winning the league...in fact that's the one I want above all others. So he has one of them does he? SG does not have a league medal know but he does have plenty of others. So your saying that you would not happily take a Carling Cup, 2x Fa Cups or a UEFA cup because you want to win the league. I would love to win the league but id also take any of the ones listed above. Sorry to burst your bubble but that is some way away. John O Shea has a few league medals should we sign him!!

Mancini has already stated he will be buying younger players to build a team for the next decade, a policy I agree with wholeheartedly: So why sign Paddy??He came out yesterday and said this, I think Paddy was signed in January....lemme see, yes yes, January is before May. I guess we could all get in that time machine that has you all stuck in 2005 and get him to say it then, but I think it'd be taken out of context considering he wouldn't be City manager.Im lead to believe that he will be signing a 1yr contract shortly, make of that what you will.

Finally he would have to change into our 4-4-2 system where Tevez would be occupying the same space as him, making the same movement as him and suffer the same drop in form as Ireland has trying to cope with the same system: I would happily change our system to accomdate Steven Gerrard but i would also not place him in the same league as Steven Ireland who has had one good season and say that he will suffer the same fate as i dont think he would I would prefer not to retool the entire side to accomodate a 30yo, especially when the one player who won't be happy about it scored 29 goals for us this season. Do you really think that CT and SG could not be accomdated to play in the same team?? IMO they could.

What is the word im looking for that sums you up.......Wanker.....wait, that's not the word, DELUDED, that's it.
