Croatia are a half decent side but my gut is telling me you will get something out of this- I think i'm gonna shove a couple of quid on Beckham 1-0(assuming he starts) and Lampard 1-0. Gerrard is obviously a massive loss tho
losing gerrard is not a massive loss as long as lampard is fit imo
playing beckham is a loss
yes chelsea
but people moan u cannot play lampard and gerrard together cos they plat to similar a role., i agree so no problem imo with one of em injured.
lets count the players that were vorted by the FANS the best england playerl ast 5 years shall we?
surely facts speak better than any rose tinted glasses?
i see footie as it is regardless who u support, im not that shallow like some im afraid.
Which club do you support ITB ?
Losing gerrard is a massive loss to england he's generally the best performing midfield player(Joe cole is also up there with him but doesn't start every game/has been injured recently) england have got. Lampard on the other hand has generally been englands worst player in the whole team for at least the past 18months/2 years maybe more so i'm unsure were your confidence in lampard comes from
Are you saying that recently Lampard has been voted eng best player over last 5 years just i'm a 100% sure that this isn't the case
Just asked about your club as a lot of fans do take favour with a player that they support every week than a player who they dislike.
I ain't just blaming Lampard though although his contribution to the England team leaves me baffled to how he still gets picked but it certainly isn't just him.Why capello would pick Defoe ahead of a 90-95% fit Owen which i assure you also isn't rose tinted glasses as it is a fact that owen is englands most prolific goalscorer whereas although i highly rate defoe at club level it seems that he really struggles at int level.There at that many players you could pick who have actually looked a good player for england i'd probably only pick 2 in Joe Cole and Owen Hargreaves the rest for one reason or another have been a let down imo.
check the last 5 years who the fans have rated player of the year. how many times has lampard won it and how many gerrard has won?
let the FACTS speak for themselves
im not saying lampard is better than gerrard, but lampard is a more than adequate replacement for us not to miss gerrard imo.
goals to game ratio between the2 for england must be close.
fucked off with the people that get on lampards back. he is class but because he plays for chelsea and has the off day for england everyone gets on his back.
lampard and gerrard are years above all the other england midfield and a good manager could find a system to expliot this imo
hargreaves?
wtf 2 good games iat the last world cup in a a desperate position and all of a sudden hes the best we got!
as for joe cole inconsistent and ce player so thats the reason he should play tomorrow, joe cole would love to be the alround player lampard is
