It's difficult to say something different that hasn't been say already, the word Legend gets banded about to readily these days imo, but not for this bloke,
If you look down the corridors of Anfield there is a room tucked away in the darkest corner. It's called the mould room,
It's where all the broken moulds are stored, you know the ones, the ones with names such as Shankly, Paisley, Bugsy Moran, Dalglish, Souness, Hansen, Clemence, Tommy Smith, Cally, to name but few, the type of individual who gave his all and some, the kind of commitment that the very foundations of this club are built,
There are many many more broken moulds in that room, Liddle, Hunt, St John, Barnes, Rush, Fowler, names that roll off the tongue.
This week we add another, perhaps the best of all, there will never be another Steven Gerrard, there will never be another Kenny Dalglish, it's so difficult to split them, we can't truth be told, different era's different game.
When you think of the worlds best players over the last 25-30 years, Gerrard for me is at the top table. Sat next to Zidane, Kaka, Seedorf, Maldini, the accolades pouring in from all over the globe is testament to that, he is very highly regarded by the very best the world has seen, and that's not bad is it when you consider how grounded he has remained all his career, from the minute he kicked that garden fork, to playing bare-arse in the street with his mates, to lifting 'Ol Big Ears' at the Ataturk in 2005,
IT IS the end of a Era, a era blessed by Steven Gerrard, he has served LFC with grace, with dignity, he is a truly living Legend
Thank you Steven Gerrard, thank you for all those special special moments , moments most of us will tell our kids and grand kids, moments that most of us will take to our graves. THANK YOU .
