He is our greatest ever player and stuck by us during some very dark years despite being absolutely world class. He's more than just a club legend, he's the biggest.

A proper homecoming👏💯 the respect Stevie G has earned at Liverpool isn’t something can be faked. He paid his dues, stayed loyal and put his city on the map

Mr Liverpool himself. Was a joy to watch his career he scored some huge goals for us and was the captain that used to drag us across the line along with Carra

[ThunderMGO]

As a Tottenham fan, what a legend he is. Stuck to his team good and bad days and never cared about money, was loyal to his team! Very rare you see that these days..
