"Sheriff with some more
ridiculous comments.
Gerrard's been past it for over 2 years now.
And being world class has a lot to do with ability rather than form."

Gerrard just had a fantastic season, you silly boy. He's done far more in his career to earn the title "world class" than anyone Arsenal currently have. And your unilateral definition of world class is bullsheite. You cannot claim Cazorla is world class and then say Gerrard isn't.That's facking laughable to anyone that isn't a blinkered Arsenal fan.

It's ok, i'm sure you'll improve on 7th place next season

Gerrard was world class. The key word is WAS. He is a shadow of his former self.

I disagree with assertions of him having had a good season. It was decent. Their success was more down to their attack more than anything.

And why can't I say Cazorla is world class? You do realise he's a better player than Gerrard currently, no?

Chelsea fans will believe anything Jose feeds them.

Mata your best player for 2 years running sold, for a more rounded player.

Thats like selling Silva and keeping Milner cos he's a more rounded player(apologies for comparing oscar to Milner )

In Mata's 2 seasons at Chelsea, he won the Champs lge & Europa cup, Jose sells him and you win feck all

Mata over Oscar all day long

"He's a better workhorse and more versatile. Based on playmaking talent, Eriksen and Coutinho are better playmakers than Oscar. "

You don't half talk garbage, do you?

Eriksen is debatable. But Coutinho? He's one of the biggest one trick ponies out there.
Tries the same through ball over and over again. Has very little else to his game.

Gerrard had a stunning season of penalty conversions.

Indeed he has. Takes em like a German.

He converted the penalties his superior teammates earnt, then proceeded to single handedly blow their title chances.

Still - He deserves 2nd place in player of the year

Ever heard the word "contradiction" before? You're so full of it. Gerrard "was" world class, yet Cazorla who at times was painful to watch this season with some incredible stinkers "is" world class?
And yes, Gerrard did have a fantastic season. Not as good as his prime but bar Ramsey, he was better than any Arsenal midfielder who you're calling world class. Blinkered drivel.

"Ok. Coutinho and Eriksen is a stretch. Oscar is clearly better than both."

He's a better workhorse and more versatile. Based on playmaking talent, Eriksen and Coutinho are better playmakers than Oscar. Both players just need to sort out their stamina. And Coutinho needs to finish better.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It is not certain that Coutinho will actually develop both (ie stamina and finishing). He might, of course, but it is far from given.
Who knows, maybe Oscar will develop his playmaking, to. I for one rate him very highly.

Coming from the guy that thinks Coutinho is a one-trick pony. You mean like you said of Sturridge? So, what is this one trick? For sure, that one trick humiliated us quite a lot at Anfield. You're a real self-parody.

Coutinho injured himself by diving

"Ever heard the word "contradiction" before? You're so full of it. Gerrard "was" world class, yet Cazorla who at times was painful to watch this season with some incredible stinkers "is" world class? "

Very simple minded way of looking at things.
As I said, there's more to it than just form. Gerrard may have had a decent (not fantastic) season.
But Cazorla is still a superior player. In the same way Ozil is as well.
Why? Because both of em are capable of more and are just simply the better footballer.
You need to quit judging players purely on form. We all know how you were duped into thinking Townsend was actually a good player.

If Coutinho is World Class.....shouldn't he be at the WORLD Cup?

"Coming from the guy that thinks Coutinho is a one-trick pony. You mean like you said of Sturridge? So, what is this one trick? For sure, that one trick humiliated us quite a lot at Anfield. You're a real self-parody."

I don't even know where to start with this real. Should I address the actual post. Or just laugh at you of all people calling someone a "self parody"?

Sturridge has had a great season. But my stance on him still stands.

What about your stance on Man U being better than us and them finishing ahead of us? You still maintain that?

"It is not certain that Coutinho will actually develop both (ie stamina
and finishing). He might, of course, but it is far from given. Who knows, maybe Oscar will develop his playmaking, to. I for
one rate him very highly."

As an all-round midfielder, I think Oscar is better than both, but I believe they're better natural playmakers who could overtake Oscar. I'm positive Eriksen in particular will be better. Coutinho is less certain, but he's an intense, skillful player with the qualities to do so.

This guy is actually serious. Cazorla is a better player than Gerrard? About the stupidest thing I've heard since you claimed Ozil is better than any player in Liverpool's history, despite the fact you know fack all about Liverpool's history. Fack me!

Cazorla is a better player than Gerrard?

cazorla currently is

Wow Sheriff. You get dumber and dumber with each post. Quite a feat.

Do you think Gerrard is the same player he was 5 years ago?
Forget Cazorla and Ozil. Henderson's currently the better player ffs.
You seem to live in a completely different world to everyone else.

"I don't even know where to start with this real. Should I address the actual post. Or just laugh at you of all people calling someone a "self parody"?

U being better than us and them finishing ahead of us? You still maintain that?"

Your stance on Sturridge stands because of your anti-English drivel that believes English players have no technique. One has to be clueless to think Sturridge is a one-trick pony. My Man U prediction means fack all to the argument. If we went down that route, you,d have a long rap-sheet, starting from a hell of a lot of garbage you've spewed about Liverpool and their players earlier this season. Even now, after they made you look silly, you claim they're just in "form".

so many ret.ards on here. So because Koscielny played in a defence that conceded 5, 6 etc, he can't be world class? Messi has played in an attack that has failed to score against numerous teams. I guess he's no good then. A single player isn't responsible for a bad defensive set-up.

For Arsenal - Ozil, Koscielny. Those two are without a shadow of a doubt world class, no argument.

Santi is also world class but he hasn't shown it this season, but you can still include him in there

Ramsey has been world class this season and if he performs at a similar level next season, which I think he will if he stays fit, he is world class.

Mr C, Koscielny can play in a highline, he's the fastest CB I've seen in recent times, he can play a high or deep line. Same with Kompany.

"Cazorla is a better player than Gerrard?
cazorla currently is"

Erm, no Cazorla currently isn't. Gerrard is currently better than Cazorla and at his prime, he was miles above.

"Your stance on Sturridge stands because of your anti-English drivel that believes English players have no technique."

This right here is complete bull really. You pulled that from your a'ss.
You tend to do that with your arguments.

I'm one of the biggest English fans out there. Proud Englishman too.

nah gerrards past it, he's a no hope bottler who can only score penalties

I needed that reassurance from Kamran
