Popular Post beararse 6,383 Posted January 20, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 20, 2019 Just watched this video and the one thing that stands out is just how nice a fella Gerrard is. It also shows the level of professionalism he is undoubtably bringing from Liverpool. Apologies if a link to this video has been posted before. tannerall, To Be A Ranger, RZA83 and 10 others 13 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Hurlock Loyal 12,133 Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 The video also shows how much he has to adapt to our training centre and Analysis options, it will be nowhere near the funding he experienced at Melwood. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the best things, but also one of the most frustrating things is the professionalism that he has brought. It was alarming how we had lost that from our whole operation, and how quickly we seemed to lose it. One thing is for sure, a club like ours needs winners, we cannot take second best at any level.

Popular Post tannerall 25,935 Posted January 20, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 20, 2019 To be fair, that really opened my eyes a bit. That is a highly professional business, and wasn't built in a day, but instead years of good sense and success. And whilst I realise that the Liverpool business is worth 100s of millions, it still gives a great insight in to how teamwork, continuity, high standards and respect can make it work. If that is the blueprint for what the current board of Ibrox would like to achieve would be fantastic. And although tough, worldly wise and focused,what a nice and open guy Gerrard is. Wonder how the two ladies would react to Rogers going back to visit.......... Blumhoilann, LiverpoolBlue, mearns loyal and 4 others 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeparateEntityMyArse 53,755 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 A good watch that. I think we all know SG will be back there as manager one day. Hopefully not too soon, and 55, 56 and 57 will be in our trophy cabinet first. Interesting point that they genuinely feel everyone is pulling in the direction of getting the 1st team winning. At Ibrox, I do wonder if there's too many who are here for a job alone, or worse who support the other mob. I see nothing wrong with wall to wall bears on our support department payroll. And yeah, Gerrard comes across naturally as a hell of a nice fella. Blumhoilann and beararse 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he does eventually move, maybe we can do a straight swap and get Klopp in return 🙂 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasper Blues 500 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 We lost our backroom professionalism when we dropped in the leagues. That was the time we should have said "Right we are down but we are not out. Lets set the standard for going forward and not allow that to drop" Of course that was also our opportunity to get a group of top kids and have them play and work together every day, add a few "old heads" and make the spine of a team ready for the step up. By old heads I mean later 30s but ones who have lived the life of professional athletes, not late 30s who are struggling to run 50 yards. Unfortunately we went the "old boys" route, invested in Nandos and kicked the ball off the players arse for a bit of fun. Brought in old duds for a last payday and then had to re-invent ourselves every year. A HUGE opportunity missed for us. We are now (almost) back to the level we should be at with a group of winners, both on and off the pitch. We can't miss this chance. That video shows the standard required to be consistently successful - We need that to be OUR standard. beararse, LiverpoolBlue and Fred H Crawford 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a great point, if nothing else comes of this season at least SG and the high standards he demands is a real positive which should again be the benchmark at the club...
