1. It's no about prognosis. Steven Gerrard is not what he once was and his fitness has been an issue for several years. I don't know what they thought I would have comfortably bet the house on Gerrard not being fit this seaso.
2. Whatever they see they're wrong. Regular fans knew this. Why didn't they?
3. No, we haven't been better or worse regardless of the personnel. The only difference is perhaps Lucas, but again that goes back to 2.
