The_Steve Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Deal could still go ahead but it comes down to the agreements. Curious to happen so quick and to so quickly go on hold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wainy316 Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 On Saturday night I thought why are we signing a player for a redundant position in our team. Now I've fully come round to it and viewed it as a sign of us changing our formation, the deal is off. Lolz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

est1874 Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Interesting that Gerrard thought he could push it through by calling Sarr to convince him. Maybe he had the opposite effect. Either way it didn't work and this tells me that Gerrard's pulling power is no longer an asset to us. Basically the last good thing about him as a manager has failed, and we're now in no man's land with a guy who can't coach, can't motivate his players, and can't convince players to believe in the project anymore. He's done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Equally, we aren’t going to accept unfair demands of clubs or players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's done. He phoned him up and Sarr asked what your philosophy is ,where do you see me playing, fitting in and what's your development plan for me. Gerrard replied run through brick walls, not sure, and we don't do development plans, find your own way, Souness did and he was sensational.

Tayls Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 (edited) It was a bit weird in terms of timing anyway. For a club that does so well in keeping things a secret until a deal is all but done, it is a bit surprising how this has now played out. How/why was this leaked when it was? And straight after a horrendous defeat…. Odd. Very odd. Edited August 22, 2022 by Tayls 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Steve Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Very weird that the blame is being put on Gerrard when we simply don’t know. People will honestly twist anything to conform to their dislike of Gerrard. Let’s just wait and see. Hopefully, we are moving on several players. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not happy with Gerrard but when everything is twisted to have a dig at him i almost feel compelled to defend him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
