Like I said “any sportsmen “including Liverpool players who get it purely for playing a sport. For me it’s devauled it all - when a player goes above and beyond both in and out of the sport then it’s time to start talking about Awards - but Kane getting one for scoring some goals in the World Cup ?! Sorry but no

So you're not prepared to directly say Gerrard doesn't deserve his MBE
Thought as much

Umm - have a feeling you been here before , clear you’re a spurs fan , spoken about the Irish - you don’t get called Paddy do you Patrick 😉

And why are you concerned about me just singling out one person when I have said all and why Gerrard ? Does he not get covered under the “all” ? And why not another Liverpool player when a lot of them have received Honours ?

Nope Im a royals fan, but I do know Patrick

Gerrard was just an example as his is most recent, you otherwise you have to go back a long time to when LFC were any good to find someone else

Tbf Gerrard got his after he had some medals. I agree sportsmen shouldn’t get them for just playing sport but currently the careers of Kane’s and Gerard’s aren’t even compariable.

I’ll take the word of an opposing manager over a fella who doesn’t understand the unlikelyhood of a footballer playing twice in 6 days after not playing a prem game in 18 months

But you crack on 👍🏻
If that’s aimed at me and obviously is.
all I was trying to get across is that Clyne would be dissapoited to be left out.
He’s been out a long time ,but he’s been fit for months but couldn’t get in the team because AA and Gomez have been in front of him.
So he gets his chance because them two are injured, plays well and is left out next game ,for a midfielder who hasn’t played himself for a couple of games.
I said he wouldn’t be happy and I think I am right to think that.
But Klopp picked the team and that’s just MY opinion.

You are correct, Kane will be captaining England to a 2nd consecutive major Semi final next year, where as SG never did and never will.

Yeah I bet Gerrard when he looks back at his career and the memories of those cup victories will be distraught that he didn’t get to captain England to our most fortuitous World Cup ever....,

Btw, if you’re considering the nations league as a major cup then rofl

Really is that the measure now - getting to a semi final without beating one major nation and suggesting that the Euro Nations is a “major” ?

What medal did Kane pick up for that semi final ? Do they have medals for that.

Just looked through the list of Kanes winners - shows zero , nil , nada - won nothing - can’t see the medal for "semi final"

Im sure Gerrard would happily swap his achievements for Kane as they appear to be so highly valued :rolleyes:

Wolves had plenty of chances to get a draw,you were fortunate they didn’t have there shooting boots on.
Go back a few pages and clubchamp even says Wolves could have got something out the game.
Yes I did say that they COULD but they never took the chances they had especially in the first half.
If you watch the whole game we COULD have scored 5/6 goals.
We were the better team by a mile and deserved to win.

Surely the whole team should get one Kane dosnt do it alone.

But I don’t think any of them should get one for just doing their job .
Charity work yes , football no!

You mean like Utd were the other week at Bournemouth where they were 2nd best but came away with all 3 points?

Unfortunately you didn’t get the backing of your fellow reds.
You could be a politician with that U-turn

I don’t get your point or the relevance,we’ve been 2nd best a lot this season,so yes whatever points we have is a bonus,and I don’t believe any Utd supporter has said any difference.
Thanks for your input though

Doubt i will.

Not the 1st time you've posted this and refused to explain your meaning so i'll have to assume its derogatory until you do, though i doubt you will.

Look soft lad you decided to have a pop at me with the childish name calling so don’t now make out you’re the victim 👍🏻

Oh sorry, hope nobody has hurt your feelings. Would hate for you to feel offended, after all your input on this forum is so valued.

Merry Christmas 👍

My point is you banging on about Liverpool getting lucky against Wolves, just pointing out it works both ways.
