Farewell to our youth – to Gerald!

Chen Lushi, Chen Yechao, Dai Qi, Shi Wentao, Li Ying and hundreds of other Liverpool fans will be destined to become the people who have created a history of football, and they have organized hundreds of fans of the Liverpool Fan Bar in China to publish full-page posters in the newspaper through crowdfunding to pay tribute to Gerrard, who is about to leave Liverpool!

May 31 is Gerrard's birthday, which is destined to be a different day, because in the "Football" newspaper published on June 1, the poster "Jay Team, You Will Never Walk Alone" represents the collective tribute of The Chinese Liverpool Bar fans to Gerrard who is about to leave Liverpool.

Since Chen Lushi, Chen Yechao and others launched this initiative, hundreds of fans have responded in just two weeks, and every fan who supports Liverpool and Gerrard has done something that seems ordinary, but their sincerity is great with small views. This is a group of young people who grew up with Liverpool and Jay captain, and when Gerrard left the Premier League to bid farewell to Liverpool, they also waved to their youth.

Dai Qi, a Liverpool bar fan from Yangzhou, Jiangsu Province, said: "For our large number of post-80s KOPs, Gerrard is our youth! In my lifetime, I even have to say goodbye to many, many strangers, even if he is a Gerald who has never met, but has accompanied me for 13 years. It wasn't until the moment Gerrard officially announced the end of the season that I knew that our youth was finally coming to an end, goodbye Gerald, goodbye to our youth! ”

Shi Wentao, a fan from Shandong, believes that Gerald is a responsible man, he can sacrifice everything for the team, "The Jie team treats Liverpool as its own child to love, to cherish, to care, Gerrard is a smart man, knows when to guard, when to leave, even if the heart is in pain, it will leave silently." ”

Li Ying, a Liverpool bar fan from Beijing, admires gerald's spirit of never giving up in leading Liverpool, "From the killing of Olympiacos to the night of Istanbul to the FA Cup final, the amazing reversals again and again, the leadership of the Jay team to Liverpool has made me understand what is called never giving up." Liverpool and Gerrard are a spirit for me, and that spirit allows me to stand up for my beliefs in the face of challenges. Li Ying said: "Steven, at the moment of your departure, I sincerely thank you, not only for a wonderful game, but also for you to teach me how to fight like a man." In my heart, you never left. ”

Jiang Chen, a Liverpool bar fan from Shanghai, told a story between himself and Liverpool, "Last March, I took my fiancée to Liverpool with me, and under the auspices of Ian Callaghan, there was a short but sacred wedding in Anfield. As she was about to leave Liverpool, her fiancée, who had never been a fan, cried, saying: 'It feels like I'm leaving home.' "In an instant, he understood one thing: inadvertently, this team, the people here, have become a part of our lives that we can't give up." Captain of the last game, no more tears. Because, I know, wherever he is, he, like all of us fans, never leaves, never goes alone. Jiang Chen said.

Kwong Zhenjian from Guangzhou, Luo Zekai from Shanghai, Zhang Xi, student fans in Beijing and many other fans are looking forward to the day when the Jay team will return to Liverpool in other ways, "Our blood has been fused with the three words of Liverpool, I would like to say goodbye to Gerrard, we are waiting for you to come back!" ”
