It'll depend on who we sign in the summer...
This could have been the summer you sold Stevie Me but given Kenny will still be there and he didn't get to play under him too much this season, probably not.
Give it 2 years and he won't be able to run anyway so we will need to look elsewhere.
Just so long as that replacement isn't Adam.
Adam > > > Gerrard tbh.
I hope Gerrard plays alot, as it will lead to Liverpool having another mediocre season.
A creative midfielder, winger and some defensive cover could mean a return to the top 4 for Liverpool.
At the expense of Chelsea, of course.

Brad Friedel has been offered the opportunity to re-sign for Liverpool this summer after Kenny Dalglish joined Tottenham Hotspur in the chase for the veteran American goalkeeper.
The 40-year-old is out of contract at Aston Villa and talks over an extension at Villa Park are on hold due to the uncertainty over the manager Gérard Houllier's future. That has alerted several Premier League rivals to the prospect of an astute free transfer and it is understood Liverpool and Spurs have emerged as front-runners for his services.
Friedel joined Liverpool from Columbus Crew in 1997 but made only 25 league appearances for the Anfield side over three years before moving to Blackburn Rovers, where he established himself as one of the finest keepers in the Premier League. However, a return to Merseyside would only be as back-up to José Reina, with the Spain international having recently ended doubts over his long-term future at Liverpool, and the prospect of more regular first-team football at White Hart Lane in place of the erratic Heurelho Gomes could work in Harry Redknapp's favour.
West Bromwich Albion are also interested in the former USA international while Villa have not given up hope of convincing him to extend his successful three-year stint in the Midlands. Speaking before the final game of the season on Sunday, a 1-0 win over Liverpool secured by Stewart Downing – another Dalglish target – Friedel said: "The contract talks at this moment have been put on hold because of Mr Houllier's health and also the ongoing court case with Martin O'Neill.
"Myself and my advisors wanted to get to safety first and foremost before we started diving into things of that nature. I still feel very good, I still think I've got a year or two left in the legs and we'll see what happens. I've enjoyed every minute of my three years here, so we'll just have to see what the future brings."
Roy Hodgson, the Albion manager, could decide to turn his attention to Preston's Andy Lonergan, who impressed in the Championship last season and has also been on Birmingham City's radar.
:unsure:
Reina to us? Can it happen?
screw Reina, we've got Szcjklajalyuuy and you know what? Friedel would be the perfect mentor. And we can sign Howard as our number 3, behind Wookash.
Liverpool will battle for the title next season. We will be 5th
I see where you are coming from but i disagree.
Chelsea should be improved next season but we may also suck eggs.
Unless City get another manager, i'm not convinced they'll mount a proper consistent title challenge.
Arsenal will almost certainly repeat the same thing they have been doing for the past few years.
Basically as of right now, 2nd - 5th place is up for grabs and if Liverpool can get some quality players in then i can see them definitely getting 3rd at least.

Happy Rome 1977 and Istanbul 2005 Day! :trophy:
Because it's always better to live in the past...
I can't believe it's been 6 years already, where has the time gone. I remember it like it was yesterday, I just got in from Football as Crespo scored the 3rd and I was pretty gutted for Liverpool. Then came those 6 minutes and I was like WTF OMG LOL.
Liverpool have supposedly made an £18.5m bid for Jordan Henderson :lol:
That's.... a lot.
I think you've toned down the spending a bit now, personally.
Also going for Lee Cattermole apparently :lol:
Dalglish :bow:
Sunderland want £20m for Henderson
:lol:Quote:
Liverpool have been told they can have Jordan *Henderson if they pay £20million for him.
And that has encouraged Anfield boss Kenny Dalglish to believe he can tie up a shock deal within the next 48 hours.
The Reds are closing in on the England international after upping their offer to £18.5million at the weekend.
Now Sunderland have indicated they are ready to do business, and with Henderson due to fly off on England Under-21 duty tomorrow, Dalglish is keen to wrap up the transfer before then.
Sunderland manager Steve Bruce is resigned to losing his talented young star - who was also a target for Manchester United last summer - and he ready to splash half the cash Henderson's sale will raise on Old Trafford pair Darron Gibson and Wes Brown.
Bruce would also like to sign United striker Danny Welbeck, who spent the whole of last season on loan at the Stadium of Light, and that has made the deal for Henderson possible.
Henderson, 20, is keen on a move to Anfield.
He still has four years left on his contract, but Liverpool are ready to pay him around £4m a season - four times his current wages.
His capture will signal the start of a busy summer for Dalglish, who believes he can also win a fight with United and other big hitters for Blackburn defender Phil Jones.
The Reds boss has also upped his original offer for Newcastle left-back Jose Enrique to £8m, while he has entered negotiations for talented young Ipswich striker Connor Wickham.
Aston Villa's Stewart Downing remains on his wish list, as does Blackpool target Charlie Adam, and the Liverpool manager hopes to finance a summer of spending by raising around £30m in sales, plus an injection of around £40m from the club's American owners.
Dalglish is equally confident his number two Steve Clarke will spurn any attempts by Chelsea to persuade him to return to Stamford Bridge when they appoint a new manager.

English tax :bow:
JHC, with the £20mill fee on top plus the bonuses you have to pay these guys to persuade them to perform, this is a close on £40mill player. Insane. Who is he again? £4mill a season, fuuuuuck.Quote:
Liverpool are ready to pay him around £4m a season
How long after their season turns to shit do the Anfield faithful turn on the board for not splashing the cash like they did with Gillette and Hicks?
The fact they gave Rafa fuck knows how much for duds such as Johnson, Mascherano, Keane, Aquilani etc clearly forgotten
Liverpool FC transfer spending policy:bow:
Rafa Benitez :bow:
Tabloid rumours :bow:
They're after Phil Jones...the one target out of their many that is quality. We've been watching him for a while I think...really hope we try to get him.
Henderson, Young, Downing...
Wouldn't surprise me to see none of those signed up.
Mata has been linked for the 3rd year running though...
And Doni :unsure:
Henderson is quality?
might be buying what we view as odd choices but their policy outstrips Arsenals.
spot the player you want, get in there and get them no matter what.
remains to be seen how Kenny fairs doing a full season but they are at least making the right noises
Breaking news on SSN
Liverpool complete Henderson signing
Comolli said the fee was different to anything he had seen reported. Then justified it by saying it was a fee we were comfortable with paying, which may suggest it was more than reported :unsure: Then again, maybe not.
NGog is still talking to Sunderland though :trophy:
SSN says £19.25m
Sunderland are picking off the scraps a bit aren't they? Getting N'Gog out of this deal, snaffling Brown, Peter Kay and Darron 'The New Lorimer' Gibson from United... Not just a pretty face is Bruce-y.... <_<

Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard believes Jordan Henderson can one day succeed him as the driving force in the Reds midfield.
England international Henderson, 20, completed his £20m move from Sunderland to Anfield on Thursday.
"It's a really positive signing. Let's hope he is the next Steven Gerrard," he told the Liverpool website.
"Good football clubs replace their best players. Liverpool need a new Gerrard and need a new Jamie Carragher."
Stevie Me indeed. He should hope he is a better team player than himself and less of a headless chicken for the good of Liverpool's future.
