Gerrard is easily up there with one of the best players of the world but no offense here IMO Messi is in another league altogether consisting of himself. I would however like to see the two of them play together. Would be epic.
Stekelenburg is way better in goal than Messi, but Messi is far better in his attacking role than Stekelenburg could ever be. It's just a matter of perspective. The football organizations generally use the same perspective when it comes to choosing "best players", which in a team-sport like football with so many different positions and individual characteristics is hilarious.
My Cousin Used To Play alongside Gerrard And Michael Owen when they were in liverpool's youth system :D he used to be a proffesional. he said gerrard was one of the best passers ever and nothing like he is now , now he's a beast back then he was scrawny , injury-prone and an unbelievable passer similar to alonso , but better .
@Anfie1dher0 if he did he'd be part of a team which has won 7 titles during his time in liverpool whilst liverpool won none. and part of a team which you have just called shit which is the most successful club in english football history.
Hey mate, hows it going? you like football manager games right? i found this cool one online footy-manager com its very similar to the football manager game. check it out. its pretty cool actually.
@Omar16122007 if you knew something about football, you would know Hernanes ! but don't worry, soon you'll find out whos is he!!! You fucking ignorant!
@kinhffrad no one knows who Hernanes is, maybe Hernandez who plays for man u? Who isn't as good as Gerrard as he is far too young to be considered in the same league as Gerrard, still has alot to experience so he can't be considered nearly as better.
@kinhffrad You mean that guy that plays for is it sao paulo ? good player but no where near gerrards standard. He's not even close to being called a world class player yet.
@leon13147 what do you mean messi is better? you cant compare, messi is a striker, gerrard is a midfielder, messi cant put a ball in like gerrard, or a pass, or a freekick, nor can he lead a team into victory. But gerrard cant match messi's pace and he has a tiny bit more skill, just gerrard doesnt show it, gerrard is better due to experience and many more awards, but ofcourse, is much older, dont even attempt to compare them..
Well yeah but.. although you cant compare certain players, (for example gerrard and messi) the position doesnt always matter. Gerrard attacks alot and Messi will 20% of the time cut back where Gerrard plays. Comparing Gerrard and Ronaldo is fine, even though they play in different positions, but obviously comparing messi to reina is just pure bullshit lol.
@dragonangel6 messi is better, aaaah, english players are ovverated, messi can be a playmaker aswell.trust me messi is easily better, but gerrard is a great player though
Gerrard is one of the , if not the best midfielder in the world. Messi is probably the best striker.
Gerrard is great at his role, in his position. He can pass, shoot, cross in, score free kicks be a great team leader.
Messi is a great striker. He can't pass as good as Gerrard, he can't shoot as good as Gerrard, he can't cross in as good as Gerrard. He can't score free kicks like Gerrard. And he can't lead a team like Gerrard.
@HitmanUK360 messi can pass just as good, he has amzing vision, gerrard wasnt as quick, agile, doesnt have the dribbling, balance and acceleration that messi has, even when steven gerard was younger, messi was voted player of the year at the age of 23, Steven Gerrard was never voted player of the eyar and probraly never will be. Your probraly just some Englishman that still thinks that England is a world class football team, which thier obviously not, looking at world cup 2010 results,
@Soccermad92 yea but if you notice england never produces a technically gifted player, one who can dribble like ronaldo, messi, do amazing tricks and plays. they never produce all time greats like, pele, maradona, cruyff, ect.....
@Gerttervill1 Fair enough, I don't believe that's always down to the players though. The coaching over there puts less emphasis on dribbling and more on passing and control. Adam Johnson is probably Englands most technically gifted at the moment, but although he keeps playing well for city he somehow can't maintain a starting spot.
@Soccermad92 i agree, well technique is control and passing as well, because england can make great defensive players, but their midfielders and forwards are not as complete as other countries football teams, they seem to rely on physical talent than technical, rooney cant really dribble or has that amazing control, he has a powerful shot and good work rate, and strength, he also can pass, same with lampard
@dragonangel6 Did you seriously say Gerrard is BETTER than Messi? I'm sorry, but no. Just no. I love Gerrard and all, I think he's amazing. But as good as Messi? I think you'll find Messi is pretty much great at everything, if you watch some La Liga games.
Lampard is still the boy like. 21 goals in the league, second highest assist in the prem this season. for me, lampard is the best midfielder of this(should i say last) decade in the prem. He does it every season.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
the whole world knows that he's a disgusting cowardly thug who should be in prison...
one can only hope that his victim launches an appeal - because the 'not guilty' verdict is a total shame on british justice and the whole city of liverpool...
liverpool should certainly NOT have a crown court if it can return a verdict which is so clearly corrupt....and those brainless scum who were seeking the autograph of a violent cowardly pig like gerrard...lock him up.
excuse me for being realistic, but nobody except those in the court know the real story on what happened, so please stop judging people on incomplete information.
and stop acting like bar fights never happen. gerrard's human, ffs.
i remember gerrard when he was young. my impression of him then was like a kind of o'shea now: a rather defensive midfielder with not that many technical skills.. but what a great player he became!!!
Yeah so u won? get over it... u still are nt gona win the premiership any time soon, ur simply not good enough, if we dont chelsea wil.... and i refuse to admit that u beat us.... we beat ourselves
hes got more goals than ronaldo and rooney this season. all ronaldo has is one trick which hasnt worked this season and rooney has fuck all duno why people think hes good
Was that you I saw in the stretford end when Aurelio's free kick went in? Or were you one of the woolleybacks that had left already to "beat the traffic"? The M6 can get busy at that time..
i think this was gerrards first goal 4 liverpool if i remember it was 2-0 and david thompson scored his first 4 us aswell, now gerrards a kop legend and thompson never reached his potential.
Gerrard is easily up there with one of the best players of the world but no offense here IMO Messi is in another league altogether consisting of himself. I would however like to see the two of them play together. Would be epic.

If you look at it...
a Disc Jockey whos a ManU fan gets "randomly" hit by Gerrard...
I mean it's almost obvious that he was provocated.
The DJ might have pushed him around and theres nothing wrong about Gerrard whos acting in selfdefense.
and saying someone should go to jail because he hit someone ONCE is just rediculous.Every weekend thousands of people get beaten up very badly .
Half of the popularity would be in jail then.

Roy Keane didnt get in jail too.He "only" injured Haland badly
