Gerrard Happy to Stay at Liverpool
Quote:
Steven Gerrard has revealed he is happy to stay at Liverpool after holding talks with boss Roy Hodgson.
Gerrard had been linked with a move to Real Madrid this summer after Liverpool's failure to qualify for the Champions League but, having spoken to Hodgson, it appears he is happy to stay at Anfield.
"I made it clear that I simply needed to concentrate on the World Cup and then have a decent holiday with my family," he told the club's official website. "I wanted the chance to meet Roy Hodgson privately and, having done so, I'm very impressed with his plans for the future. I can't wait for the new season to start."

Good to hear, read the article hes happy to have Joe Cole around too. I'm warming to Cole, but I wont be sold until he performs. Last time I got my hopes up about a fairly major signing was Keane.....I wont be making that mistake again....
Masch may stick around...

Roy Hodgson is adamant Liverpool have had no contact with Inter Milan regarding midfielder Javier Mascherano, and says suggestions he has been snubbed by the player are "exaggerated".

Dont know how I feel about this either. Usually if you have a player that wants gone and it hasnt been able to work, you make it work, once they feel they'd be better suited elsewhere its tough to turn back, especially if your teammates know that you effectively tried to bail on them but failed.
Gerrard and Carra convinced Cole to come...

I know that quoting one's self is the height of arrogance but....

Stepover, stepover, goes left. Every. Single. Time.
He could go to Liverpool though, hes got England teammates there in Stevie and Carra. I just dont know if I'm sold on wanting him.
