And sorry, but I would never call scoring goals as earning my respect, when i balance it against what they have done (in this case, worse, and not that long ago)

If he suddenly turns a new leaf..and over a sustained period shows it, then he might gain my respect as a person.

But, perhaps i have too high a standard (I just don't think so )

Just because l support Liverpool has nothing to do with it as l have forgiven players who in the past has made their own mistakes and my motto in life is to forgive and forget as life is too short to hold grudges against people who have wronged in the past.
