"Remaining in hospital for several days cos he is taking a course of anti-biotics!! Whats all this about. We hear rumors that Stevie has had to have another groin op and is out for months.... come on LFC more info please"
"I think we should be able to manage without stevie, with the new signings we have. It's unfortunate, he's hit that age where he's going to pick up injuries more regularly, but hopefully we can make a good start to the season without him. "
"That s why kenny brought Charli adam he may not be steven gerrard but he will help us alot in our midfield anw I hope gerrard can have a good recovery and PEOPLE PLZ TRUST KING KENNY"
"That s why we kenny brought Charli adam he may not be steven gerrard but he will help us alot in our midfield anw I hope gerrard can have a good recovery and PEOPLE TRUST KING KENNY"
"That s why kenny brought Charli adam he may not be steven gerrard but he will help us alot in our midfield anw I hope gerrard can have a good recovery and PEOPLE TRUST KING KENNY"
"I have been saying it for months and I stick with my theory that Gerard will not play any meaningful part in the team. That groin should have been sorted out years ago, the previous management and medical team have a lot to answer for."
"Not suprised at all by the recent training pics from Melwood. Never looked like he was ever training. Best wishes Stevie, just come back fighting fit YNWA Captain Fantastic !!!!!!"
"oh thats not nice to hear man ... hope steve g will get well soon .. wish him a good recovery and to see him soon on the pitch ... he will be missed for sure but i am sure charlie adam will make a good job too."
"Charlie is going to have to step up early! Lucas,Meireles and Henderson aswell! I have faith that Kenny will pull us through! YNWA get well Stevie G!"
"Be patient Stevie.
Make sure you are 100% fit before you return. We need you at your best.There is a long and difficult season ahead.
Your absence will give the others time to bed in.
All the best"
"Got excited last nite i deliver shopping for tesco in scarborough & my 1st drop was to steven gerrard who was on holiday
guess what ? it wasnt the top man. All the best steve get back soon"
"The greatest player in LFC history WITHOUT a doubt. Sad, very sad indeed.Stevie is the only person who can give the new boys - Suarez excluded - a thorough lesson on what it means to play for LFC. Come on Stevie..bring it on! God bless & get well soon. Y-N-W-A!!!"
"sure we are all gutted to hear this but i think we have enough quality cover. if we could trash man city last season with spearing, lucas and meireles in the middle so why couldnt we do the same with the new signings."
"The end of an era..things will never be same..need to find the next Gerrard quick..thanks Stevie for all that u done..it's time for u to say it quit..
Aquaman..now it's your chance to step up..
In aqua we trust.."
"God we miss you Stevie, all the signings in the world wont change anything, and if preseason is anything to go by then we still won't make the Champions league!! WE NEED YOU GERRARD PLEASE HURRY BACK YNWA
"
"Utterly gutted! Take it easy mate, totally no rush. I'd rather wait a little longer for a stronger and more durable Steven Gerrard. Get well soon Stevie and all the best."
"and if this statement says that he is expected to be back in september then we should trust that its true untill something new comes up. new players can prove themselves in september while stevie gets back in time to shock manu and everton in october YNWA"
"Get well soon Stevie, we need you back youâ??re our captain marvel, cant wait to see you back wiping in devastating diagonal crosses on to big AC head, and inspiring us on to victory the EPL le.
YNWAJft96
"
"Well LFC Is No LONGER A ONE MAN TEAM!!!
The Boys Showed Last Year They CAN Cope Without Him- AS KK Said No Man Is Bigger Than A TEAM! But There's only ONE Steve G. Get Well Soon.***YNWA*** "
"maybe stevie doesnt fit like he used to..please get coaching license stevie & be our next coach. i dont like hoping so long for u to be fit, but stevie still the best LFC player for me"
". What's with this club, all these top medical people and it's delay after delay, injury after injury. Either Stevie should not be paid until he returns, or the medial staff should not be. As some are being paid thousands a week, but not doing anything."
"this has been on going since march , its very concerning that he is still not fit. The statement says september but not when in september so it could easily be the end of , which could slip into october. Sad to say it but this could be the end of Steve G in a Liverpool shirt."
"I can´t say that this is a big surprise, but nevertheless: GOD DAMMIT!!!
But the idea in buying several midfielders during this window is getting obvious."
"We must realize, that MBE is getting close to the finish of his bfillant career. That´s a shame, but I comfort myself from the fact, that we played some of our best football last year, while he was away injured."
"noooooooooooooo, we need stevie 2 set the liverpool standard 4 the likes of Adam an Henderson! Hope stevie recovers well, cant wait 2 c him back 2 his best! IKKWT, YNWA!!!!!!"
"Sad news, this has come from putting his body on the line for so many years, playing through niggles at 110% for the club when we have had a poor team, he is always the one to save us. YNWA Steviecant wait to see you back!"
"Unfortunately, his career is over. We must admit it and the club must know this. otherwise they would not have gone crazy buying MFs!!!
Does he have a prosthetic implant? If so it is very bad then as infections lead to replacements and failures. If he has to be admitted it means it is a deep-infection requiring IV treatment."
"i love stevie.. but i agree we have to plan without him now, must keep AQUA, cant always rely on our captain, he carried us through many seasons,it must be taking its toll.. YNWA STEVIE :("
"Stevie injured oh no, get him fir and sell him, whike we still can. Only Joking Get fit and lead us to the top of the Prem League. We gotta pull the manc back to level terms. Also if we are to leave Anfield we have to bring the Prem trophy there before we go. "
"Been rather unlucky has Stevie G im sure he will be ready for the new campaign. He will have the best of medical treatment at Melwood taking care of him to make sure that he is 100% fit and no less. Come on Stevie we need to win this le we are long overdue."
"nazim7860, Why are you on a Liverpool website if you Loooooooooooove Man Utd? Maybe you're confused. Btw, I heard Kuyt beat man utd on his own so stop crying and go back to your own website. "
"An infection, sounds nasty and bet those antibiotics are gonna hit him hard and waste all the goodness the rest has provided stevie with. The most important thing is that when hes back he is fully fit and energised so if that means another 2-3 months on the sidelines then so be it. Get well soon Stevie"

"get well soon stevie keep in there we are ALL behind you the main thing is to return with a bang and with the team the king is building stand by stand by
YNWA "
"Get well Stevie. Even if you not playing, your advise and presence around the youngsters is an inspiration and it seems to motivate them.
LFC for you..."
"Stevie G. Take your time, I still bear as much love for you the day you made your debut as a Liverpool player and will never stop doing so. You are the reason I love Liverpool FC. Come back fit and well. YNWA - Malaysia"
"Although I would much rather have steven in the team, everyone in our team always steps up when stevie isnt playing and the whole team play better as they don't leave everything to gerrard.. Bring on new season! YNWA"
"i don't get it, i thought he had an operation on the "on going groin injury" at the end of the last season, and was recovering well...i'm pretty sure i've seen stevie himself say that he was all sorted, and feeling stronger than ever before :s"
"missing the quality, vision and passing of the ball like gerard will be a great loss foe the new season. can we cope without?? are the new players have enough time to settle in the team?... Strange Aquaman is not in the plan of LFC. hope it is not the same start as previous season!!!! 13 aug man all the fans will get their answer..."
"Also, I hope the Skipper returns quickly, don't rush yourself though Stevie, I think we can all see now why King Kenny bought all of these midfielders. ;)
"
"Disturbing news for sure. An infection this far away from surgery? I must admit, I don't think we will see the captain on the field this year, and possibly never again. Prove me wrong Stevie G!"
"No Stevie, No Suarez for the start of the season. Leaking goals from ordinary teams,bought in all honesty average players at huge fees. A month ago i couldnt wait for the season to start. It all ends before it can begin. We are LFC and we have been disappointed before. So whats all the fuss about."
"Think Gerard situation was always bad but the board did want to creat a panic.personally it would be a miracle if stevie is available this season.It is soon gonna become a hargreaves like situation i am afraid. I hope i am wrong since stevie is my man!! :("
"what is really happening to our CAPO? please let us know cuz this is getting too much. since Man U match almost six months now since he kicked a ball last still he's not yet fit to train and now he'll be available in september. fellow reds please let us all pray for stevie G and the whole team to be succesful and injury free this season.YNWA"
"Stevie G. Almost irreplaceable! However, we will cope well as we have a lot of decent midfielders particularly a certain Acquilani who is not favoured by our sentimental managers. However, the defence could prove our albatross as we seriously lack decent quality at left back and central defence. Probably the worst defence in Premiership for now. "
"THANK GOD!!!! ITS AN EYE OPENER FOR THE COACH. SELL AQUILANI AND WE SHALL BE IN BIG TROUBLE,....ENGLISH! ENGLISH!! ENGLISH!!CAN'T BRING BACK LIVERPOOL GLORY. WASTE OF MONEY!!!"
"Those of you who are spouting nonsensical stuff like his career may be over...are you guys doctors? Do you know every detail of his prognosis that you're making such assumptions! If the likes of likes of Lance Armstrong could beat cancer & win the Tour de France, I think an athlet like Gerrad could come back from this adversity!"
"Good Job Kenny brought in some quality midfielders to cover for the absence of Stevie G!! Definately did not want to hear this news but, it gives the other lads Henderson Downing Adam to show their worth... Especially Arsenal away after Sunderland!!!!! Time to get a grip now lads the season is just around the corner. Would be nice to win in Norway on Monday.. YNWA"
"Get well soon stevie your the best captain in the world any club in the world would miss you hopefully ur b back sooner rather than later we are all behind u skipper !!!!!"
"Get well soon stevie your the best captain in the world any club in the world would miss you hopefully ur b back sooner rather than later we are all behind u skipper !!!!!"
"still dont think we have another player that can do a stevie and change a game in his position lets pray suarez plays from opening game of season or wins might be tough to achieve "
"I hope I'm wrong but I think Stevie Gs days are numbered, please god I'm wrong he's been an inspiration to young footballers and the best club captian in the modern day. Get well soon Stevie "
"Would rather have Captain Fantastic back in tiptop shape than risk him in a knee jerk reaction to a league spot come 4th game in...get well soon Stevie. YMWA"
"well we can't just rely on new players, we need an inspirational player on the field, and that's SG, but he's injured. What a huge blow that will be for our opening games. "
"Get well soon Stevie, stick at it and you will be back before you know it. We love you Stevie and its only a matter of time before your back doing what you were born to to on the field. YNWA"
"When Stevie is fit, no player in the world can cover his place... NOT ADAM, AQUA. HE FITS IN WITH THE LIKES OF XAVI, ALONSO, SNEIJDER. WE NEED STEVIE BACK IF WE ARE TO ACHIEVE WHAT'S EXPECTED OF US!"
"Serious note, is this it for SG?
Groin injuries never heal no matter what you do, fact. And now to further complicate matters an infection from the surgery (I guess the surgeon didn't watch panorama).
Obviously I and a million others hope it is not, but have the club foreseen this with their ever increasing numbers in midfield?
"
"NOOOOOOOO! %#*&#! OK, maybe KK new something we didn't and has been trying to make sure were covered in the middle. Really makes keeping Aquaman a priority. Get well Stevie G! YNWA "
"I hope i'm wrong but it doesn't look good, if he is finished thanks for the memories stevie. Those calling for us to keep the italian princess are wrong he can't cut it in the prem"
"Gerrard is the best player I ever saw, he is the reason I want my kids to play football, a true captain a true player, no media hype around him. hope he recovers, but if he doesn't I hope he makes the right decision and quits while he's ahead, would hate to see such a legend playing somewhere else like the mls"
"Aquilani is not ready to play on SG place he is not that good people. If he was he would be playing for Juve already plus he appears to want out from liverpool. let him go and send poulsen, jovanovich, cole and degen with him. KK knows best."
"OH !!!!GOOD WE have quality backup,,,,,,,,,,i see Adam,Lucas and Spearing anchoring the MIDFIELD.........
Henderson and kuyt on RIGHT WING..........Carrol ,Suarez and Kuyt for the STRIKERS......Skrtel,Carra,Kelly
and Agger for CENTRE BACK..Jhonson and Kelly for RIGHT BACK....."

"NOW TWO POSITIONS WHICH i think need cover is LEFT BACK A DEFO NEED .........AND ANOTHER WORLD CLASS ATTACKER.....striker left winger..........marin,hazard or adam jhonson for me................AND.....LBACK.
PERERIA,CISSOKHO OR IZZAGUIRE...MAYBE ENRIQUE....GET these 2 spots filled and we have a complete team...to challenge for the le.."
"Let face it we all know and love stevie G, but at the moment he cant give what we need for the team. This is why we need to keep aqua man more then ever. With Stevie injured aqua can provide the much needed international midfield class that we will surely need. A must stay KK."
"Wishing you a speedy recovery Stevie;come back better,fitter,stronger & ready to help us push for long awaited glory.The world needs to see you playing again especially alongside the likes of Suarez,Downing & AC.Good luck in your rehabilitation."
"I heard this weeks ago, as i told you all. Seems Kenny was right to buy all those midfielders after all it would take three to come any where near replacing the worlds best mifielder!"
"Sorry to go on but its amazing, I mean all the idiot fans who write all the crap on the transfer links yet i think i recognise two of them commenting on true LFC news, mesmerizing! I hate closet fans!"
"Take time to get right and on return play every game as if it is the second half of a European cup final! Only don't give the opposition a three goal start! We can wait for a Fit and healthy SG! All the best YNWA!"
"Quote Steven Gerrard "I'm in the best shape of my life"! Ha, good joke! Hate to be the pessimist, but Gerrard's finished! Let's just hope Henderson's worth that £20m!"
"Bad news. We will struggle without SG - and we don't have a replacement with the right mentality never mind class. We lost to Spurs because of the inexperience of our midfield. "
""Quote Steven Gerrard "I'm in the best shape of my life"! Apparently said after the golf tournament in Portugal. I hope he does come back but retires from the England squad."
"without a heart beat a body does not function, without STEVIE G The REDS miss somthing tangible. Come on STEVIE PLEASE get very well as soon as possible. "
"Time has come to mature, play confidently and win without SG! For too long team has lacked confidence without one player. Nonetheless, will miss you greatly and wish you a speedy and long-lasting recovery. "
