stewaj3 1,446 Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 I was confused but just seeing this coming through now. Unless Liverpool or a club who want to spend serious cash come in, I can't see him going this year or next. That is of course barring any fallout with the board here.

Goianegra 4,682 Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 He's clearly committed. Not to mention Derby County was a more appealing prospect than Newcastle imo. Until Liverpool come calling, I'm not worried about the possibility of him leaving. Sash tap 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until this week I didn't think he'd go direct from us to pool. Now after lampard I think Liverpool will be his next job regardless of his success here tbh.

Liverpool are very well run and wouldn’t risk an appointment like that. Chelsea are a mess at the moment and have a transfer ban, the context is different.

Ashley targeted Rangers boss Gerrard and Nice manager Patrick Vieira after Benitez’s contract ran out and the Spaniard left for China. But the Sports Direct magnate has known from the offset that the chances of luring Liverpool legend Gerrard to Tyneside were slim. He was still prepared to try and alerted Gerrard’s representatives to the possibility of a quick return to the Premier League. But Gerrard has only been at Ibrox 12 months and any departure this summer wouldn’t be welcomed by the Rangers fans. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t say that, if Gerrard was motivated by Money he’d take it and earn up to 10 times what he earns here, that’s not what I’d call stupid. luckily it’s been proven he had opportunities throughout his career to do the same and never took them either, the man is a football purist not a money grabber and does what feels right in his own head if I was a betting man I’d say he’ll only leave Rangers for Liverpool, England or by mutual consent 🤨 nowhere else makes sense atm HG5 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That means that if Klopp left, Liverpool need to find a replacement capable of totaling over 90 points in the EPL. Right now, that isn’t Gerrard and Liverpool would know it.

SIRB_72 4,000 Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Now surely if Gerrard had been approached by Newcastle then Rangers must have been involved? Doubt it. So Newcastle were trying to get Gerrard behind Rangers' back? I know it goes on but sounds like an illegal approach to me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All what u say is correct but it's easy for the board absolutely no one would question Gerrard getting the job. Regardless of Chelsea and circumstances not one person has questioned lampards ability to do that job. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
