I did say that Rooney had been poor for England - as have many players. That doesnt stop Gerrard from being quality. Would you really not have wanted him at SFC?

Found out? Really? Thats odd because the pros think he is one of the few World Class players we have produced over the last few years. Many playrs have not shone as they should in an England shirt - Wayne Rooney being one. England have been poor for a number of years and it is not down to Gerrard.

Dear God. I would have had Gerrard at SFC in a heartbeat. He may have not produced the goods at England level (how many have - the golden generation did f-all) too often but he was a quality player and at his peak would have walked into any club side in the world.

You need to grow up mate.

Oh no! He needs to show Ron what he is really made of. This will never do. He may get to stay!

No Artur, Vic, Morgan, Gaston. Lovren, Tadic, Steve Davis so bound to look a bit thin.

And yet the media would have us believe he is off this week?

Could this be St Charlie or Dig Dig?

Isnt that £20m?

Stop sitting on the fence and tell us what you really think Seriously, with "fans" like you if I were KL I'd sell up and run!

Quits Intl football. Timing right but who comes in to replace him?

Which only works if you win back possession frequently. If you dont, with the high line it can leave the defence exposed.

His head may well be in Liverpool but his @rse could soon be in SW London. I would love it, love it if Liverpool get gazumped!

I imagine we have insurance for him so if he doesnt play again we are covered. Would you buy a car that had been in a crash and there wasnt certainty that it would run again? If it was yours already and it doesnt you are covered. I cant imagine Liverpool's insurers taking the risk.

Spurs fans will expect a good go at the FA Cup and will not like it if he bails out. Expect plenty of fireworks when weakened teams are announced and Jesus takes control of the cup games!

I agree, he has more chance of being sacked in the next 5 seasons (actually probably the next season) than he has of winning the Premiership in 5 seasons and given the realtive strength of the top clubs against Spuds the chances of CL are pretty slim too. On the bright side they could have plenty of Europa Cup football to look forward to.

In what universe would you sign a player who is yet to recover from an injury such as his?

1. Where is your evidence for this point? 2. I am sure when players/potential managers meet with the Chairman he/she does there best to sell the club and the club's asperations to the prospective new employee. There have been a number of occasions where the person hasnt been impressed with what they have heard and havn't joined the club. Cortese seemed to pride himself on his "vision" and we were told he was very good at selling that "vision" to others. I am sure he would be very upset to hear his profound words to be described by an internet jockey as "empty words." So back to point 1 again before I close. If you are going to slander the owner I suggest you are sure of your facts. My understanding was IF we had to sell, we would make sure we got top dollar. That is very different to the spin you put on it.

Because football is a team game and if you have a bunch of players who arent happy where they are it impacts upon team performaance. We heard that about QPR the year before last didnt we? Dischord in the dressing room. You could get away with it with one player but not several. How ould you feel if a load of your mates got jobs elsewhere doing the same job for three or four times the money at "better" companies and one of these was interested in you. You go to your boss and say I'd like to leave please and he says no, you are under contract and you have to stay. Are you going to be a happy bunny? I doubt it. Why would you want people like that in your team when you need people to pull together? I'd love it if they could be pursuaded to stay but if they really want out I would prefer we had players here who wanted to be here.

I dont see Liverpool and Manchester United going after a load of Everton players though so they dont have the issue we do do they? When United wanted Rooney what happened there? Fellani too last season. It just so happens it is our players they are after now.

It will be interesting to see if Poch trots his mate Jesus out to manage weakened teams in the cup.

So if he and the players had stayed what do you think us likely to win next season? He had no interested in the cups so that only leaves the Premiership.

The disregard for the lives of innocent men women and children never ceases to amaze me. Here we are in 2014 with thousands of years of experience behind us as a supposedly constantly evolving and growing life form and we (well some of us) continue to act like monsters. I hope those responsible are found, convicted and rot in jail. You watch the programmes about the First and Second World Wars and realise that nothing has really changed. For all the pain and suffereing we are still capable of producing these sickening atroceties.

Scouting is one thing, players being available, being happy with the deal or waiting to see if a bigger club comes along another. If you were an agent wouldnt you be touting for the best deal for your clients?

Love the idea that Morgan would snub a move to Arsenal because he would rather work with Pochettino than Wenger. So much for playing in the big games then if he is prepared to snub CL football and go to Spuds.
