Dimwit's just got back from the pub.
Navarro & Noone, if bothered who you were, would be embarrassed with that crap.
You don't have to be a scouser to be embarrassed by crap like that on a Brighton messageboard.

Top 5 midfielder my arse
Do explain what your definition of a DECENT English player is then?
Obviously a player who has won:
FA Cup: 2000–01, 2005–06
League Cup: 2000–01, 2002–03;
FA Community Shield: 2001, 2006;
UEFA Champions League: 2004–05;
UEFA Cup: 2000–01
UEFA Super Cup: 2001, 2005
In a team in which, more often than not, he was far and away the best player is only HALF decent.
Just in case you need any more convincing that he was in fact THE best English midfielder of his generation, and probably for a while before him, he won a few individual awards to:
FWA Footballer of the Year: 2009
PFA Players' Player of the Year: 2006
PFA Young Player of the Year: 2001
PFA Fans' Player of the Year: 2001, 2009
PFA Team of the Year: 2001, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009
FA Premier League Player of the Month: March 2001, March 2003, December 2004, April 2006, March 2009
Liverpool top goalscorer: 2004–05, 2005–06, 2008–09
UEFA Club Footballer of the Year: 2005
UEFA Champions League Final Man of the Match: 2005
UEFA Team of the Year: 2005, 2006, 2007
FIFA/FIFPro World XI: 2007, 2008, 2009[100]
FA Cup Final Man of the Match: 2006
Goal of the Season: 2006
England Player of the Year: 2007
I for one can't wait to see a player - who in various periods in his career - was among the top 2 players in the world, play at the AMEX.
Anyone who says he is over-rated as a player is literally MENTAL.

Not so much man-love as appreciation of a very good player.
I would have comfortably put Steven Gerrard in the top 2 players in the world from 2004 - 2006, maybe you don't remember how he carried Liverpool to trophies through those seasons?
IMHO the reason that Gerrard never really performed at international level is because he was always shoehorned into positions and formations to accomodate lesser players (generally Lampard) because he was more adaptable, being made to play left midfield being the best example. Whereas other international teams seem to build their teams around their best players. His achievements for club, on the otherhand, are as good as most top European players.
I think we'll have to agree to disagree as I don't think he's ever even been in the top 10, I'm not saying hes shit just that he's very over rated.
Look at the effect it had on pools play when alonso left... I really feel Liverpool could grow into a top 4 team again without gerrard & I think if he was a foreign player then us English wouldn't hold him in such high regard at all..... Like I said "a half decent midfielder"....... Not an electric world beater by any means & never has been
Gerrard - bags of talent, but an absolutely shit football brain.
His 50 yard diagonal passes could be brilliant if he didn't try them 6 times a game when a 10 yard pass forward would usually be more effective.
