>>
>>67404683
The lad's won 1 Champions League, 1 UEFA cup(And 2 UEFA supercups), 2 FA cups(And 2 community Shields), 3 League Cups.

With the Champions league win he was able to lift the trophy, carry it out of the stadium and bring it on a plane back to his club to keep forever in Liverpool, where he is worshipped and gets to live in a very big house shagging his wife and daughters, now in LA.

I think he's done alright.

Evra has like 8 league titles and a CL win.

He has lost 4 CL finals, though 3 of them were to Barcelona.

>>67404717
Ballack won a league title with Kaisers fucking lautern.

He was a choke artist with Loserkusen, but if it wasn't for Terry being english at penalties his carreer would be considered exceptionally successful.

How many finals did Ballack win?

let me guess, you watched the webm that's been going around and assumed it was some big moment that Gerrard fucked up for his team.

It was the 37th game of the season and Chelsea were 1 point ahead of United with their final game being Wigan at home. This game was essentially the last chance for United's title hopes - a lot of Liverpool fans were even calling for the team to throw the game.

Ballack lost the league on the last day of the season, the cup final, the CL-final and the World Cup-final within a space of 2 months.

I don't think it can get more tragic than that.

Easily the best and only world class player of his generation in Germany, carried his team to a WC final basically on his own, lost two CL finals because of the fault of others, got injured before the world cup and when he came bck he had been replaced and everyone told him to fuck off, remembered as a total failure

It's not hard to be a Liverpool legend. It's a status also shared by Luis 'No one else wanted me when I was at Ajax' Suarez and Xabi 'I need a stepping stone' Alonso

>>
>>67424872

Jesus fuck, I just realized that that slip will probably define and stay with Gerrard for the rest of his entire life. Unlike, Terry, he will NEVER redeem himself by winning the title he literally slipped away. Imagine being him. Imagine having to live out the rest of your life (Approximately 60 more years) thinking about that moment over and over. Imagine what he feels every time he accidentally slips on something like ice, or every time he sees one of those "wet floor" signs. Imagine what he would give-- all the things he would give, to have that one moment back and do nothing besides stay on his feet. I actually almost feel sorry for him. Almost.
