Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Kei te memeha haere tēnei whetū, he iti rawa te wā. Whai muri i te whakapuakitanga a Steven Gerrard i te marama o Hanuere i tana whakatau ki te wehe atu i Liverpool ki LA Galaxy i te raumati, he maha nga mea i tumanako ki tetahi huruhuru whakamutunga i roto i te koti whero, i te mea he maha nga mea i mua. "E hiahia ana ahau ki te whakarite kia kaua au e pouri ina mutu taku mahi kaitakaro", i kii ia i tera wa, iti iho i te toru marama ki muri. E waru tekau nga ra, i te mea pono. Ko te whakatakoto i ana pou ki te waewae o Ander Herrera i roto i te tukinga nui ki nga hoa riri nui a Manchester United, tetahi o nga keemu tino whakamataku i runga i te raarangi o nga tukinga, ehara i te mea i roto i tona hinengaro. Ina koa i te mea e rima ngā tohu te wehenga o te hinga ki a United i te tuawhā. I whakawhiwhia a Steven Gerrard ki te kāri whero i te tukinga ki a Manchester United i muri i tana noho i runga i te papa mo te 38 hēkona. Ka haere a Gerrard ki te rūma whakakī i muri i tana tukunga ki waho i te tukinga ki Manchester United. I te wa i tangohia ai e Gerrard, 19 tau te pakeke, te pōro i te 40 ira mai i te whāinga, i haere atu i mua i ngā kaitākaro e rua o Sheffield Wednesday i mua i te kitenga i te kokonga maui o raro me te taraiwa matau mo tana whiu Liverpool tuatahi, i whakaekea ia e ona hoa kapa. Ko te tamaiti i uru atu ki te karapu i te waru o ona tau kua pakeke. I whānau mai he whetū. I whakaratohia e taua whiu he pouara e rua-whaainga i te wa i raru ai te taha o Liverpool - i wharahia e nga whara - i te pakanga ki te taha o raro o te teepu i te Wenerei i te 1999. He mahi māramatanga, he mahi whakamiharo, he mahi e whiti ana i roto i a ia; he mahi e whiti ana i roto i a ia tana ngakau nui, tana tinihanga me tana kaiarahi. Ka ārahi ia i te kapa mā te tauira i ngā wā maha, maha atu. Ki te kore e whakaarotia hei kaitākaro tīmatanga, ki te whakaiti i tana ake waiata-whana e toru nga kēmu nā te wā o te haurangi, ehara i te mea i whakaarohia e ia kia mutu i te 16 tau i muri mai. Kei te whakanui a Steven Gerrard i te mutunga o te kēmu i muri i tana whiwhinga ki a Sheffield Wednesday i te tau 1999. Ranei ehara i a ia i te ngakau o to ratou whakataetae 13-kore i hinga i te Pirimia Pirimia i akiaki i te kapa ki te waahi Champions League. I tīmata ia i te rima noa iho o aua mea, ā, ka nui rawa te hara mō ō rātou...
I tukuna atu a Steven Gerrard ki waho i te tukinga ki a Man United i muri noa iho i te 38 hēkona. Ko te wā tuaono i roto i te mahi a Gerrard i tukuna atu ai ia ki waho. Ka wehe atu a Gerrard i a Liverpool i te mutunga o te tau ka uru atu ki te LA Galaxy. Pānui: He tere rawa te kāri whero a Gerrard i kore ai e rēhita ki te karaka o Anfield. Graham Poll: He tika a Martin Atkinson i tana tuku i a Gerrard. Pānuihia: Ko nga wa tino whakamataku i roto i te hitori o te Premier League (50-41)
