tonyk, you're talking bollox mate!

Liverpool isn't a one - man team, although Gerrard is an integral and very important part of our team, he's not our be all end all, in fact Liverpool had a better record of win's without him in the team last season. We have one of the worlds best midfield's, Alonso, Sissoko and Hamann are very much good cover for Stevie and they've proved that.

And about our Champions League final win last year, it was Hamann who changed that game for us, he allowed Stevie more freedom to do what he wanted...but people only see Stevie doing his part as usual. Players like Hamann and Sissoko don't get any recognition because they do all the dirty work and are happy letting the 'bigger players' take the limelight.

Just to add, Stevie will be going nowhere for a few years yet, he loves the club and knows there is no one bigger than us.

As for yesterdays game, well done to West Ham, they were the better team on the day, although it was a close game, they shaded it in most areas. But at the end of the day our quality showed and took the game to the point where Liverpool had the better chance to win.
