it tells me that we are playing a sunday league team who have no shape or quality and he's managed to score twice. It means nothing about lampard.
Tells you nothing... Its Andorra ffs. Lampard would have probbaly scored 2 if he was playing even with Gerrard or not.
It tells him we were ***** against Andorra Although after his interview following the Israel game he'll no diubt be telling us what an excellent professional performance it was and that there are no easy games in International football.
Tells me.. ..they are two of the same type of player and you could play either of them in that attacking midfield position and they will both do just as well. But its no good playing Gerrard wide right cos in my opinion he is wasted...bit like playing Howard wide left!!
I could've scored 2 against them ok, so that's a bit far but come on I honestly don't think a game against amateur players can tell you anything about the likes of Gerrard, we were never going to get out of first gear against them, we just about did the job and that's it. It remains to be seen which of the 'ard lads is the best choice although Steve is clearly on better international form at the moment.
Lampard ruled himself out after his world cup performance for me. Not good enough and definately not worth £130,000 a week (the greedy Barsteward)
At least Gerrard gets on with things even when going badly Cant remember Lampard ever getting hold of a game by the scruff of the neck for England.
doesnt matter that it was only andorra even without last night i think it was very obvious we need gerrard in the middle and hargreaves gives us a defence option in the middle so that about solves that problem and lampard sits on the bench whats wrong with that?
It tells you that we are playing with 2 wingers, neither of whom can put in a decent cross. It shows that we haven't the creativity to supply the strikers so need a midfield player to score goals against a fourth rate team.
Thats definitely true We were awful - in all fairness the back 3 didnt do much wrong - or much at all really best crosses came from our right back - If Lennon and Downing cant perform against these why are they playing - Disco would have contributed more than either of those 2. All I can say is its Lucky for McClaren Gerard was fit and he had to play him in the middle or I think it would have been even more embarrasing
No Joe Cole played well the last few games he played for England. In the WC he was our most creative player.
