Ed,
After seeing Gerrards run behind the defence and volley finish from Tavs ball over the top from one of the bounce games out in the Portugal training camps, can we have a simple FUN poll - would the gaffer still be able to compete in the SPFL? Yes / No
I think he could - 100% no problem.

Steven Gerrard Player Poll

02 Jul 2019 07:32:29
Shame he was offside though lol.



02 Jul 2019 12:44:03
Didn’t want to mention that Seeker! Though I heard the linesman was a Mason so that’s why it wasn’t given
Here’s hoping the Compliance Officer doesn’t give him a 2 game ban for the start of the season though after a flurry of complaints from the Tim’s! .



02 Jul 2019 16:48:06
22% of people are on drugs.



02 Jul 2019 17:49:51
Im one of the 22. I said no for two reasons, SG loves football and if he could play he would so I trust he knows best. Also as he's a midfielder he would need to run about 8 miles a game. Not sure if would have aerobic capacity or VO2 max to achieve that sort of level as this diminishes with age and there is no getting it back. Remember it took Davis a while to get his match legs even when fit and younger. don't let romance get in the way of the facts. Wouldn't like to see Gerrard be another Niko.



01 Jul 2019 21:09:14
Morelos sold for a tasty fee, all fringe players sold or moved out on loan or mutual terminations, Kent bought, Skertal and Sturridge on FREE transfer Job done. if Carlsberg did transfer windows.



01 Jul 2019 21:54:13
I'd keep Morelos before I signed sturridge.



01 Jul 2019 22:06:07
Sturridge can't replace Morelos. He has been hampered with injuries and for that reason is a greater liability than Morelos imo.

Dont see the need for another senior centre half, particularly Skrtel who would demand a hefty wage. Goldson and Katic have to be our first choice pairing at centre half and the biy Edmundson is there for cover. McCrorie can play centre half too if needed in a crisis.

Kent is a must and although it looks like the only option for us is another loan, if we do get a large fee for Morelos I'd re invest it in Kent on a permanent deal and Defoe can be our main man next season. Would Gerrard be comfortable with Defoe and Stewart as our main striking options with Rudden, Hardie and Dallas there too? he's spoke about the boys from the academy being in contention for a first team push so maybe this season we will see some youngsters given the chance.



01 Jul 2019 22:53:38
I wouldn’t want Alfredo to leave but think we play better as a team with Defoe leading the line. We won 8 games in a row when Alfredo was suspended for 3 games then a further 3 games but still missed the next 2 due to teams form.
The money raised to be spent on a permanent deal for Kent.
Sturridge remained injury free all of last season and as an impact striker from the bench would be great.

Stewart can do a job there aswell as covering Arfield in the 10 role.
We need 4 CB’s yes I agree Katic and Goldson were best pairing last season but if 1 or both get injured we can’t rely on Edmundson and McCrorie to fill in for games in Europe, or away to Hibs, Hearts, Celtic or Aberdeen etc. They might be good enough but McCrorie is a CM now and having only 1 natural CB as cover is too risky.



02 Jul 2019 00:12:06
Hardie off to Blackpool, rudden no where near good enough. What is it with folk harping on about youth all the time. If there good enough they will play. The ones you mentioned are not!



02 Jul 2019 07:16:00
If carlsberg done transfer windows there is no way i would be wasting 10mill plus on kent. he's just not worth the money.



02 Jul 2019 07:22:21
Sturridge is a no go! The injuries are all trivial he has and puts him out for months at a time and not many clubs will be in for him!



02 Jul 2019 08:21:31
We will sign another CH and as for rudden and dallas as cover, sorry but they are not ready yet, would love to be wrong but they haven't had a sniff of the first team yet. Not keen on Sturridge tbh, bags of ability but hasn't had a good run of games since Brendan left liverpool.



02 Jul 2019 22:52:08
Talking crap sell buffalo fur sturrage OMG .



01 Jul 2019 20:54:33
Not saying its going to happen but Sturridge, Defoe and Morelos. I think that would finally tip the scales in our favour. If we got kent back and landed Sturridge the Tims would have kittens. Even the most hardend Tim couldn't deny that we would be a serious threat. Please make this happen Sir Steve of Ibroxshire!



02 Jul 2019 06:00:19
I honestly think we do need another experienced centre half j1985.I've noticed there's a lot of very good, free agent centre halfs out there. From a personal view, i would love stevie G to try and sign cahill or subotic. Not for a second would i suggest we would be able to get any of the 2,but at least ask the question. You don't get if you don't ask.



01 Jul 2019 20:44:44
Doiger, sorry for your loss, just read hardy is linked with Blackpool.



02 Jul 2019 09:14:42
That's OK Eastcoastblue. I did live in hope that young Hardie might be given a chance, but there we go. I think the pressure of stopping the unwashed will make it difficult for many kids to get a chance in the next two or three years.



02 Jul 2019 11:54:21
Doiger. I am a hardie fan, he was given a chance but just could not step up. If and when he leaves I wish him all the best.



01 Jul 2019 19:11:10
If you get a minute Dean Windass interview with Si Ferry worth a watch particularly around the 50 min point when he's says he was greetin when Josh walked out to Penny arcade for Rangers, the biggest club in the country and the best fans you will every meet in your life, oh those poor sheep are going to be walking with a limp tomorrow.



01 Jul 2019 19:29:06
They guy is an absolute clown. Part of the reason his son never cut it. And the way the fans turned on him. No bit part player at wigan.



01 Jul 2019 19:45:27
Paul it was nothing to do with dean with what happened to josh at rangers that’s just utter Bs.



01 Jul 2019 20:58:12
Dean used to get tore into him when he was pi$h.



02 Jul 2019 07:18:06
Not to mention calling rangers fans mongs. don't like the guy never have never will.



01 Jul 2019 18:32:13
Just read Liverpool officially confirmed 10 hours ago Daniel Sturridge Contract ran out today by waving him and Moreno goodbye on social media . And we are now favourites to sign him, I'm sure we need to register all players for Europe on the 5th I'm lead to believe we're aloud 2 wildcards but what I'm stuck on is . do the wild cards have to be youth or players in and around the football club?



01 Jul 2019 19:17:50
Sturridge is a lightweight, great talent but waisted on a soft player he won’t play through even a little niggle I wouldn’t want him near the club and I think Defoe is our experienced striker Gerrard won’t be interested in Daniel sicknote.



01 Jul 2019 19:46:55
It’s not going to happen DS will not be at rangers the bookies odds are irrelevant RVP was 4/ 6 and zlatan was fav to go to them it means nothing other than clueless idiots betting on it and also it’s allowed not aloud.



01 Jul 2019 16:21:11
Gerrard ain't going anywhere. arabs buying Newcastle or not. he said he'll be here for four years and he will be. sturridge ain't comin here either. he's just left a 130k a week contract and isn't going to take a 110k a week pay drop. don't bet on them. buy a euromillon instead.



01 Jul 2019 15:52:41
hey fellow bears
reading and hearing from everywhere that rangers should be worried if newcastle are taken over? its hilarious to think that sg has been slated by : the media the press certain pundits that mob . and now they are saying we should be worried? lol the only ones that need worry are them sg is going nowhere. money doesn't get you everything especially steven gerrard is a very loyal person just look at his career he never up sticks at anytime why would he do it now! what's your opinion ed would steve move elsewhere for money or stay loyal to his contract?



01 Jul 2019 16:52:50
he does not want to manage any other team in the epl than liverpool and that won't be happening anytime soon.



01 Jul 2019 17:38:53
Brian it’s well documented that he was going to sign for Chelsea and was persuaded otherwise now not for one minute do I think he will leave until/ if Liverpool come calling.



01 Jul 2019 18:07:16
Steven Gerrard said not long after he became our manager, that he didn't see himself being a manager of a lot of clubs. He stated probably a couple of clubs and if he was good enough his country. That to me would suggest that the very honest, loyal steven gerrard, will want to be manager of rangers, Liverpool and england and that will be his managerial career finished.



Joe Gomez

01 Jul 2019 10:27:19
Good news in the papers today that Gerrard is going to stamp his authority on stupid red cards and we all know who is the major guilty party of that. If he does stay our no.9 don't pay a salary for the number of weeks suspended. All very well saying a player is punished by not playing but they'll feel it even more in their wallet.



02 Jul 2019 22:47:44
Aye and what player or agent in their right mind would sign a contract to that effect?
