Respect for announcing it early and being transparent with the fans. That's a class act. His legacy at Anfield is secure. Wonder if he'll come to the ISL for one last payday? 😄 Just kidding... unless?

A great player and a great professional. But honestly, as an Indian cricket fan first, it's funny how much emotion football evokes. We should learn from this loyalty. Our IPL players change teams every year!

This news actually made me sad. He was the reason my brother and I started supporting Liverpool. Wishing him all the best for his next chapter. Hope he has a great farewell season.

While his achievements are undeniable, the timing feels a bit off. Announcing it now could be a distraction for the team during a crucial part of the season. Should have waited until the summer, no?

Absolute legend. 255 goals! As a Chelsea fan (I know, I know), even I have to respect what he did at Liverpool. Football will miss him in the Premier League. Now, can we please have a proper testimonial match for him?
