Offer came to late

Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard has stated nobody should be blamed for his departure, however he has advised he would of stayed if he was offered a contract last summer.

Gerrard advised over the weekend that he will be leaving Liverpool and it is rumoured that Gerrard will be moving to the MLS and is likely to move to LA Galaxy.

Gerrard told a local newspaper “If a contract had been put in front of me in pre-season I would have signed it,

"I'd just retired from England to concentrate all my efforts on Liverpool. I didn't want my club games to be tailored.

"My injury record had been fantastic for the past two and a half years and I had a great season from a personal point of view last season.

"It's all ifs, buts and hindsight now. That period between the summer and the end of November gave me thinking time.

"There's no blame and I'm not angry about it. There are other people in the squad and the club had other things to worry about.
