      700 games for Stevie
      Feb 03, 2015 02:54:01 pm
      The next time Stevie dons the Liverpool shirt will be his 700th for this great club.

      He will become only the third man in our illustrious history to reach that landmark after Cally and Carra.

      The man has achieved almost everything in a Liverpool shirt and even though we know he'll be leaving in the summer, it's still a fantastic achievement for him and one that deserves celebrating. I think I'd like it to be against Everton rather than Bolton.

      Well done Stevie!!!

      Fantastic achievement, fantastic player.

      Good luck in America, and hopefully comes back on board in some capacity.

      That's some achievement for any modern day footballer and thoroughly deserved.

      How I'd love for karma to play it's part in giving Stevie the ultimate parting gift come Birthday present to captain us in the FA Cup Final at Wembley.

      700 up for the G man, 700, just sit and think about this for a minute, 700 times,

      For most of those 700 he gave more than most give when crossing the whitewash, how many times did he drag us over the line, how many times did he single handedly it seemed get us out of the sh*t, how many times did he come up with the winner in particularly vital matches , ie, finals , semi-finals, qualifiers etc,

      Yet to think that some folk on these boards actually slate the bloke and have been very critical of his efforts, I guess some just don't recognise world class when it's there right in front if them,


      Even now in the twilight of his career I'd still rate him as one of the best players in the EPL , albeit much slower,

      The man is quite simply a living breathing Legend,
      We have little more than 3 months left to enjoy watching this unique phenomenon ,

      For those lucky enough to see Steven Gerrard play live whether it be at Anfield or elsewhere , consider it a absolute privilege and savour every second because there will never ever be another like him.


      Godspeed Steven Gerrard, in your new adventure and thank you for everything.


      Margaret Aspinall is right,
      Steven Gerrard is more than a footballer to the City of Liverpool.

      Man, 700 appearances is outlandish in modern football when you think about it. Incredible accomplishment for Stevie!

      Let's hope it's against the bluenoses and he smacks a trademark 25yarder into the top corner to silence the trolls.

      Incredible achievement. Especially given his position/style of play through the years, high energy, a leader, helping win countless big games scoring unbelievable goals. Had his share of injuries, makes 700 all the more impressive. A once in a generation player.

      Fantastic achievement and I think it'll be tomorrow as opposed to the game at the weekend.

      Send us through on the milestone Stevie.

      Tremendous achievement! It's going to be strange next season without both him and Carra there. Thankfully though he isn't leaving after featuring in every game like he used to, I think the boss is doing the right thing in managing his game load.

      What are the rules on shirt numbers? It'd be cool if they gave him a temporary shirt number of 700 for that one match.

      What an achievement! May never see another outfield player hit 700 games for us.

      Nah that'd be a little sad.

      Would be a F***ing awful, chavvy thing to do.

      Besides, he already has his "700" boots ;)

      Been a fckin privilege to have seen this footballer play   at his peak unplayable , even now in the twilight of his career I get grest joy at seeing him on the field  just hope the final is set in stone and he gets the last hurrah at wembley would be a fitting end to a wonderfull career .

      I love the Man to bits but I have to say, I thought he had a stinker of a Match. Hope that if he starts the Bitters game, we get to see him in full flight.
