Looks like his destination will be the MLS with LA Galaxy and New York FC intrested. If the latter signs him wonder if he will return to premiership next season on loan with someone :winking: Shame though as Gerrard is better than the MLS.
A great player and a huge loss to the English game.
Arguably the most complete midfield player ever to grace the Premier League at his pomp for a few years in the middle of the last decade. Although still good at 34 he clearly is not the player he once was and a move to the States could be a good thing for both him and Liverpool as other players seem to be moved out of their best position to accommodate him in the team. So maybe Galaxy is the most apt option for him as for many years he was simply out of this world for Liverpool.

Are you feeling OK ?
Another overrated Scouse Git :smile:
Brendon Rodgers says the word legend doesn't do him justice. No, the problem is that people use the word legend so much that it has lost it's meaning. Like the "top player" tag that Redknapp has branded about so much it has lost meaning and now he has to call someone a "top, top, top player".
Gerrard was a great player and always will be. He will be remembered for his gaffs though.
Personally speaking, don't think Gerrard would even feature in a top 10 of "best" Liverpool players! Not fit to lace Emlyn Hughes' boots!
Will Liverpool look a better team like England do without him?
He played a lot but won nothing with England and famously never won a league title, the real test of consistency and quality at club level. Even at age 36 Frank Lampard is a key player in another title challenge - and that's at a different club. In contrast Gerrard had more finishes outside the top 6 than title challenges whereas Lampard never finished outside the top 6 for Chelsea and still won more FA Cups and punched fewer DJs for not playing Phil Collins than "Stevie G".
Not exactly difficult to be loyal at Liverpool either. It's not like he was stuck at Rochdale his whole career. He still won plenty of medals and is made for life too.
