On the other hand, Gerrard has had two big injuries this season that have kept him out for the huge chunks and he’s become as injury-prone as he was as a young man in his early 20’s. If you were going to be harsh, you’d have to say that he’s not getting any younger; turning 31 at the end of this month as well. Looking around, there may not be as many takers as there were in the past, he’s lost a bit of pace, his goal tally hasn’t been as spectacular this season and he just hasn’t looked the same player for the last 12 months but there would be one or two that’d jump feet first in for Gerrard: Chelsea and City both immediately spring to mind. And for such a marquee signing as Gerrard, City would be likely to pay big bucks. In the past, he’s been worth 40-50 million. Now, we’d be looking at more like 20-25 and given the way the side has played in his absences, it’s clear that we can manage without him, for the most part. With that money, we could look at getting in an Ashley Young or a top-class import. In short, it’d bloat our coffers to the point where we’d be able to bring in one or two more players than perhaps we could already.
Either way, it’s a dilemma that may or may not face Dalglish in the summer. If he does, it’s going to be an incredibly tough call to be left to make. I’ve never been completely on Gerrard’s side but even I would fine it hard to choose. What would you do?

r u drunk?
do not write such stupid things on liverpool website go to manu website and do what u like
Kenny already said he was the best midfielder in the world, by that statment i cant see him selling gerrard!
If u are thinking that Gerard should be sold then u might aswel stop supporting Liverpool and start smoking crack
you are crazy , i would not sell gerrard for anything
stevie is a living legend and he wil return to his best next season
dont say that just because somebody has had a bad season and never ever say those things to a legend like GERRARD i can understand that he has grown old and has become more of an injury prone player but why is it that you are forgetting that he is the one who stuck with us during our bad days and horrific forms and that he is the one responsible in bringing most of our trophies since the day he stepped in……or in other words he was simply the heartbeat of this very football club……..though i understand selling him is arguably the more logical thing to do but still there is something more than logic that determines the status of a hero and this something is always present in a die hearted fan of a club and i am sorry to say that you dont seem to posses this quality in you……
