In his prime, I think he was the most complete player in the world.
Amazon Prime ???????
@@ECLKWRIG u dumb?
Lol
So many people from England ridicule him for the slip but fail to praise him for his fantastic career. Learn to respect your legends.
English people never respect their players as long as they play for their rival clubs.
No wonder they never give their all when playing for England.
The slip joke is a way for them to console themselves of how their favorite team will never have someone like gerrard
Great player. I respect him immensely for not going to Chelsea chasing glory with a plastic club. He stayed true to himself.
Smug caucasoid his career would been so much different , he would of never had the good link up with torres and if he went chelsea maybe they would not of been so good with Drogba and lampard linking up
news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/l/liverpool/4653041.stm
Smug caucasoid well said, and he still won lots of trophies with Liverpool, not the premier league but he's had his hands on every other cup, and not many players can say they have won the UEFA cup and the champs league in their career. And let alone the 5 cups in one calendar year! UEFA cup fa cup league cup community shield and UEFA supercup. He got young player of the year that season aswel and played a massive part in getting all those trophies.
5-1
Smug caucasoid he regrets not going to the blues mate and he will forever
I don't think we'll ever have a captain like King Stevie again 😢 YNWA Mr. Liverpool
Aisosa Ihama ikr so charismatic carried games from midfield he had it all
Aisosa Ihama slippy g
Brad Mcnamee i'd worry more about getting your lucks sorted pal
rheanna mccourt 😘
Pa-Musa L. Ngom No one is exactly like Gerrad
what a player
coming from a utd fan? i thought id never seethe day #YNWA
respect
rep
Chris Kindler not many united fans appreciate his ability... True legend isn't he.
Chris Kindler agreed i always loved his style growing up but i support united but still have respect
Will definitely go down in the history books as one of the all time greatest. Fully respect him and such a genuine man.
Greatest of slipping
Baller...... ur a knob!
He won't go time as on of the all time greatest. He will go down as a great. He was an amazing player, but he didn't really achieve much in his career.
Not one of the greatest. He wasn't even the greatest midfielder Liverpool had during his career. If Gerrard wasn't a scouser he wouldn't have been given as much praise as he was - the funny thing is he's hardly even a proper scouser, Whiston is blatant wool territory.
Cloud ffvii PKP Agree
Milan fan here - Gerrard is a legend. Huge respect! We've had two epic Finals. It's so sad players like him and Paolo Maldini no longer exsist.
So true Blue!
The greatest all round player in the Premier League ever (Arsenal fan)
Lord of Frog's Disabled Cousin NO!
Paul Scholes was better
Sean Coyle Christ.
Nice to see real football fans have respect for one of the greatest players and for me a Liverpool fan the best all round player,with the heart of a true leadership.blessed to have seen him
*scholes
One of the best midfielders in prem history
Premier League Icon. That simple. Congrats on an amazing career (Arsenal fan)
My respect for this man is unreal. Legendary player, truly incredible career. More loyalty than anyone. (United fan)
Nice one Dan!
Great player who played for a great club
I'm sure it will.
What mad statement!! The guy never never smelt the PL, why would it not be the same without a non champion!! Madness.
Calm down mate he was a top player but he's a Liverpool legend not a football legend . Big difference
Bossman 1 100% correct. He gets more respect from Liverpool and the English press. But beyond that he was merely a very good player. We're not talking 'Best in a generation Zidane type player'
Craig Rijkaard Dias trust me mate . Some guy on these comments said best player ever 😂
Captain, Leader, Legend. YNWA
y1521t21b5
Yesss lad
y1521t21b5 what does YNWA means?! I see it everywere
England captain tragic. Myth. YAWN
What a player,what a career,what a legend..love from a Manchester United fan.
Respect sir
What a disaster as England captain !
Even as a united fan, this is hard to watch as he brought so much to the prem and changed English football
charlie rymer Just think what would have happened if fergie had gor his wish and managed to sign him. my god that woulda been a scarey midfield.
charlie rymer all these players leaving, and all these foreigners coming in, it makes the United vs Liverpool so much different now, I've got a season ticket and I think it's going to be my last😓
How did he change english football? He was a comprehensive failure for the international side, a useless england captain and he didn't even win a single league title in england.
I don't need to have played at Gerrard's level to be able to comment on whether he "changed English football". He did not change English football whatsoever. He did nothing of any real worth for England that I can remember at all. He was part of the golden generation of English football players who came through at similar times (Beckham, Scholes, Gerrard, Lampard, G Neville, Rio Ferdinand, Terry, Sol Calmpbell, Ashley Cole, Rooney etc.) and they achieved nothing, In fact they even managed to not qualify for the Euros, so every one of them should really look on their international careers as a resolute disappointment. The only exceptions could be Beckham, because he clearly did revolutionise England and English football and has been a huge ambassador for English football across the world and Rooney because of his personal achievements e.g. becoming top goalscorer of all time in English football history. Gerrard did absolutely nothing for England and we have nothing to thank him for in that respect.
MrBounce66 If Fergie had have signed he would have played second fiddle to Keane and Scholes in centre mid, or would have been pushed out right when Beckham moved to Real or been more of a utility player covering full backs etc. Gerrard's career would have stalled if he had have joined Utd because he wouldn't have had as much playing time nor the freedom that he had at Liverpool.
Legend, Icon, Hero. Most dynamic midfielder of his generation.
Just a phenomenal player - he is immortalised in that 5th European Cup win
Thanks for the memories Stevie!
Gerrard > Scholes > Lampard. FACTS.

I'm a Liverpool fan but why compare these players? All had quality and unique personality, just leave it and appreciate good footballers for who they are
Alan West Every utd player...just like every liverpool player will say SG is better. Both was fantastic, but overall SG was better.
Him and lampard will always be my two favourite English players. Just a shame Gerrard never won the league, deserved it more than once at least. Legend
Ethan Roe funny Scholes is better than both of them 😂
DefineXFusionz Deluded Man Utd fan
Myth
Legend, had the chance to go to Chelsea and Madrid with Mourinho to have glory but chose to be a Red. Players like Gerrard and Totti are a rare breed these days.
fengkorberfer Vardy?
fengkorberfer Messi,Iniesta & Xavi ...?!
Rly? what better paying clubs with better title chances is there than Barcelona? There is no comparison. SG could have transferred to get more money and titles. Any move from Messi, Iniesta and Xavi would have been a cut in pay and less chance of titles so why would they even be tempted to move before their time.
LOSTFORUMER He has a long ways to go
Mr.Strange They were already at one of the best teams in the world, whereas Stevie and Totti stayed through rougher times
I've got tears in my eyes, grew up watching this absolute machine play and change matches. Legend
Myth
His hair is so awesome
He needs a statue outside Anfield
Good call!!
Is he dead ????
ECLKWRIG is henry dead ? he has a statue
Henry VIII ????
n.m a. Henry wasn’t a Liverpool player. The only 3 men honoured with a statue outside anfield are all dead
at least he will get 99 rated legends card on fifa
I don't think any fan of any other club will ever realise how much Steven Gerrard means to the World of football . He stuck with Liverpool never winning a league title and for that I can commend him. He gave his heart and soul for the club, when realistically a move to another club would of probably gave him a better career in terms of winning trophies. He gave the fans some amazing memories! Anyone who doesn't realise what a phenomenal player he was is purely ignorant. Good luck in life after football Gerrard.
Captain😂😂😂😂😂😂
Never realised how illiterate Messi was !
He wanted to leave Liverpool to join Chelsea and handed in a transfer request, the only reason why he didn't go is because his family got threatened if he did leave.
Partially agree, with the add-on proviso that, of course, all the uncertainty about his average Liverpoo career enabled him to secure an increased salary when his contract came up for renewal. So much for 'loyalty' eh ?
Cloud ffvii PKP I doubt it was just he's family being threatened. He has enough money to prevent something from happening to his family. I'm sure he was just frustrated and wanted more money
Absolutely ! It had very little to do with the outrageous behaviour of the local scallies; more to do with delays and obfuscation persuading Liverpoo to make him an enhanced salary package offer; so much for 'loyalty' eh ?
Legend. It's Thanksgiving here in America today, and I'm giving thanks for Steven Gerrard as a Liverpool fan. #YNWA
Myth
ECLKWRIG agreed- at times it's hard to believe a player that awesome was on Liverpool for so long. :-)
Steven Gerrard legend
An'erm Gerrard myth
Greatest all rounded player to grace the game for a long time ❤️
Thank god i grown up watching stevie G ! So many good memory's watching Stevie and Liverpool , like most liverpool fans i would love him to sign for liverpool at January and be that morale support player and play the defensive game. But i am living in a dream world clearly ! well done stevie !
My life would be complete if that happened
"dream world"...........................never a truer combination of words !
YNWA Captain Fantastic!
An absolute joy to watch. Didn't win the league, but sure as hell won the hearts of millions.
YAWN England Captain Tragic!
LONG LIVE THE KING!
STEVE GERRARD GERRARD

The 2006 Cup final goal, amazing player in his pomp.
swordghoti that goal broke my heart
It was a very strange cup final that one, crazy goals.
@@swordghoti i thought u meant world cup i was so confused
Legend. Wonderful footballer.
Myth
Steven Gerrard. One of the greatest players to grace the Premier League, he might of never one it. However he took part in the greatest CL final & scored the best goal ever in a FA Cup final against West Ham in Cardiff. #Respect for Steven. I wish him luck. I hope he ends up coaching at Liverpool. (Hammer's Fan)
respect to gerrard appreciate what he's done for england and respect what he's done for liverpool
CfCFan99 he was crap for England and he slipped on his arse for liverpool
+Luke The fish who cares if he slipped on his arse he was an amazing player
Proud to be a Liverpool fan. Thanks for everything Stevie G. #YNWA
Who else is crying while watching this😭 world class player who deserved more medals 😞 coming from a fan who just truly loves the game 👍🏼
Shouldn't have slipped then
Let's try and remember the positives, out of respect as men
+4 scoops GODDAMMIT lol
What time does the play ground close?
for me the best midfeilder of his time at Liverpool YNWA Steve
* best bottler midfielder of his time
Steven Gerrard won no premier league titles as a player, but will win many was a coach.
Reus Master no
what a moronic comment, he doesn't even have all of his coaching badges
At tiddlywinks maybe. LOL
Whenever I was at anfield you'd here 40000 shouts of, "give it to stevie!" Cap fantastic!!!
Whenever I was at Wembley, watching England you'd here 60000+ shouts of, "for Gawd's sake, don't give it to Gerrard!"
? please translate.
Mad respect for an absolute legend with amazing talent. Truly one of the best of all time. Man United fan.
Fair play Bruce Wayne!
Chelsea fan but the amount of respect for this player is unthinkable. Absolute legend to the game.
one of the best of all time
At tiddly winks ?
yes👌😂
I grew up a Chelsea but had a Gerrard's poster on my wall because he is one of the players I idolized while growing up. Lampard, Beckham, Scholes and Gerrard. I love this man. Great professional and a proper Premier League legend. All the best for your future, Stevie G. :)
😢😢sad this football great had to retire but nothing lasts forever. i have always respected him for who he is and the way he plays. goodbye stevie g and good luck for the future #YNWA #StevenGerrard 😢⚽🏆♥
The greatest to ever play the game!
Mario Allen One of!
One of the greatest players to play for LFC
Best English midfielder ever by a mile.
crack?
bencb3 Name a more complete English midfielder.
Being the most complete and being the best are not the same thing.
DrewPeacock69 TrippyDP Name 1 then? dont even say Scholes haha
Sua7ez Charlton, ball, Scholes,
What an honest and amazing person SG is. The best LIverpool player of the modern era. Like the fact he credits Rafa in the interview.
I'm a Newcastle fan but always enjoyed watching Gerrard play. Feel quite honoured to have grown up watching him tbh.
One of the best! (Arsenal Fan)
What a player. What a legend. Just a lovely bloke really. Thanks for all the memories Stevie 😢
Gerrard was not to blame for us not winning the league, he had 13 goals and 13 assists that 2013/2014 season, if anything he nearly won it for us
Great Interview - Liverpool's Steven Gerrard has made a brilliant contribution to Football - wishing him all the very best in his retirement from the game and with his family as his wife Alex is expecting their fourth baby!
Watching this man playing for last twenty years I truly learned to love the reds and the passion for the club continues after his retirement. He is the greatest red of all time and from time to time managed to keep lfc up the on the top of the world single handedly. All his commitment to the club over two decades - in highs and lows - is simply special and highly respected.
Always our captain... YNWA
Worst ever England captain... YAWN
one of the greatest players this country has produced. a gentleman of the game. what a career. legend gets thrown around these days. but he is a true one
Legend.
Myth
even though i've always been an arsenal fan, this guy was my favorite player in the world
Hardly a serious arsenal fan so
Absolute legend one of the best ever
let's respect this football legend
Nope ! Football myth
Living legend ,#ywna
Hussein Omar Hussein Living slipper
Notorious enjoy getting ye house petty bombed
Notorious: Pathetic
Living myth, #yawn
the best player, the best captain and the best footballer of our times
The worst ever England captain
My favourite ever ! A force of nature ! They'll never be another Stevie G .
What a legend
What a myth
Such a great player, he always gave 110%
When he said about discipline and getting silly cards and him asking "who has that perfect career of not getting them?" the answer is the man who's interviewing him.
filips989 Lol, so would I :)
one of the greatest players ever to have graced a football pitch! no one will ever compare to the extraordinary Mr. captain fantastic! I will always be his fan! If young players need an ambassador for football, let them, watch a video of Steven Gerrard of how to play the game! YNWA!!!!
He never won the premiership, but he certainly won our hearts 💕 YNWA! 👍
YAWN!
Top 5 PL players ever. Class act
such a humble guy👏
Real and raw athlete, honest with his emotion and down to earth. Beyond refreshing to witness a sportsperson with his stature be so humble.
Legend..... Just Breathtaking
Myth...........
Incredible player, an idol for other players and one of if not the best to ever step foot on the pitch. True legend in the game he will be deeply missed....
Ryan kirk best ever ? Some of what your smoking please mate 😂
Best ever ? Another scouse delusional wankfest
Baller Martial that's a bit rude considering that he was actually one of the best, Just like Vidić was one of the best defenders in the prem.
Baller Martial I'm not a scouse, I respect gerrard as a footballer and what he has done both for country and club, he was one of the best...fact
A Person Who Exists he's saying best ever though ? Like ever . So better than Messi
One of the best English central midfielders to have played the game. What a legend.
What a myth.
What a beautiful man!
hes so modest a wonderful human being who has graced our tv for 19 yrs lfc la galaxy but overall he is loyal and trustworthy and i can on see him being a great coach and later in time manager of lfc
I respect him all the time he is Legend
He is myth.
I will always respect this legend
the moment he mentioned the 2005 champions league final I had chills all over my body, what a day that was, what a game.
Personally, I never like to see a game decided on penalties.
ECLKWRIG but that game wasnt about the penalties. It was about the amazing comeback
I'll never forgive him for dragging Liverpool back into the 2006 FA Cup Final with that gut wrenching goal to make it 3-3, but I can't deny what an incredible player he was.
32 years, still waiting for a trophy. West Ham United
Shaking this mans hand was one of the best things that's ever happened to me🏆❤️
Shaking my fist at this hapless idiot for his woeful performances as England captain were some of the worst experiences of my life.
Gerrard is a legend, one of the greatest English players ever (Man Utd fan)
Steve g is my living legend really sad to see him go but hope he gets a job with klop
Legend
Myth
The amount of times he scored late goals and individualy took Liverpool from defeat to victory was incredible. I will always remember him for his late stunners!
Gerrard one of Englands greatest players. There are no words to say, cant take my eyes off of him.
England's worst ever captain. TBH, I couldn't watch when England were playing with him as the bumbling captain.
Thanks Stevie
Really hope he wins the Premier League as manager of Liverpool, to complete his collection. I'm an Aston Villa fan, but I grew up idolising Gerrard and I can't think of many things that would make me happier than seeing him do that. No person more deserving imo.
See ya back home, Stevie!
yyyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaa ofcourse
All time favourite player. carraghar and Gerrard to win a Prem with Liverpool as coach's!!
2005 One of the greatest nights of my life. Thanks Gerro!
Even as a West Ham fan I've always liked Stevie G, looked up to him as a youngster being English, mad respect. Would love to see him manage in the prem, good luck Stevie!
Steve Gerrard, the reason why I support Liverpool. i started watching football from 2007, Chelsea and Man utd were so dominant. But then, I met Gerrard ~ always hardworking, always 100% every game, could pass, dribble, shoot, defend, an all round player. An absolute gem of a player. My GOAT.
Shame that a lot of people will remember him for the Chelsea game, an unbelievable player for Liverpool, England and the premier league an absolute credit to LFC and one of the greatest of all time 👍🏼
Guys, just crying...
He's my IDOL, my POWER, my STRENGTH... When i playing football and losing 2, 3 or more goals i always remember that night, Istanbul Night when we won it 5th time. Nothing impossible !
#YNWA #LIVERPOOLFC
"Nothing impossible" except a PL winners' medal for An'erm Gerrard.
+Vuk Mrakic Ahhh diddums, going so soon. See ya, ya self-confessed deviant.
ECLKWRIG BLAH BLAH BLAH
ECLKWRIG I don't know why u repeating the same sentences all the time?! ;O
What a player! The club and the fan's were so lucky that he stayed when most players with his ability would have left. Hope he never becomes Liverpool fc manager though. I would hate to hear Liverpool fans booing Steven Garrard the manager or calling for him to be sacked.
One of the best midfielders.
Dedication, devotion and loyalty 😌🔥😎❣️
