Thats rubbish imho

I think Gerrard has a tendency to go to far and does make some very bad tackles.

But to say that he is nothing but a cheat and a dirty player is bollocks. He is an excellent player and Liverpool would be half the team they are if he didnt play.

You description would fit someone like a Francis Benali/Vinnie Jones more aptly imho.
