Yea well, That's what we get for leaving the best goal scoring midfielder in world football on the bench, and playing an astov villa knob with 2 first names!

Oh and gerrard missed a sitter, we gonna start booing that scouse prick now?? .. thought not, it's steven "the sun shines out my arse" gerrard.

This whole friggin Lampard or Gerrard argument really has just turned into a big pile of steaming crap now.

Im sick of seeing Chelsea and Liverpool fanbois filling every single friggin football forum I look on with constant bickering about one or the other.


argghhhhhhhhhh

I feel better now I needed to get that out of my system.

England never should have been in this situation in the first place. Poor results and performances cost us early on. Screwed now tbh, I cant see Russia slipping up in Israel......

Whole England setup needs rebuilding from the ground up, oh and wtf were the 3 substitutions that were made to get us into the game, both wide players off and replaced with Downing, Lampard and Crouch??????

Man Utd fan so i'm a neutral on the Lampard v Gerrard debate.

Gerrard is the better player for me. But like Lampard has not produced a good performance for in an England shirt for years.

They aren't the only ones you can add Rio/Robinson/Rooney to the list.

The whole system needs changing from top to bottom in England, else nothing will change for many years.

Gerrard and Lamaprd both need to be dropped. It worked for Beckham, Sol Campbell and Hesky. They came back hungry for thier spot and knew they were playing for it

However Lampard produces consistently for Chelsea and has done for seasons.

Gerrard's has been sketchy at best imo.

But he hasnt performed for England Vlad, even you have to admit that.

Best Chelsea players for England this campaign have been Terry, Swp, Joe Cole, Lamrpard and Ashley Cole. iIn that order

But it's not about Chelsea, Liverpool.

We have class players, we just need somebody to kick some fecking asses into shape, and get them playing as a team.

Mourinho next manager anyone?

Liverpool with Mourinho would storm the league, he brings the best out of players

Doesn't look good for England considering you're playing vs Croatia in the last match.

Missing Sven yet ? :kissit:

I think he meant as England manager :p

But iirc he stated a while ago he didn't want to go into international management for something like 10 years as he prefers to manage week in week out.

R/e Lampard. Yes he hasn't performed for england in a few years, but for me it's down to the difference in his club/country roles.

Perhaps, but he has had the chances to play in his club position and failed miserably.

I disagree.

When Lampard played under Mourinho he was the main man in midfield. Almost every attacking move would go through him or he'd orchestrate it in some way. Whether the move ended with him blasting from 30 yards or the ball being squared 2 yards in front of goal he was involved.

IMO when you bring together players who're playing a few times a year together on average you're not going to have that awareness of what will happen.

Unfortunately Gerrard has produced marginally better performances as of recently (he's hardly been impressive - Barry is the main man at the moment) and has been preferred over Lampard.

The england fans being stupid ***** booing their own players doesn't help either.

They are entitled to voice thier opinions, thney have forked out good money(in thecase of Wembley, far over the top prices). If a player is playing shit, they have every right to boo

As much as i agree with you.

I do feel singling out Lampard is fecking off imo, as i said in previous post, there are many players who have just not done it for England recently.

Though Lampard is a world class player there is just no space for both him and Gerrard in the same team, not to say he shouldn't get a game though. He needs to do a ronaldo and prove the booers wrong. Same shit happened with beckham too.

why are we persisting with spaz hands robinson btw? surely we got better (and not calamity james either)

england were unlucky tonight.. as chris waddle said: That was never a pelanty... was outside the box..

(yes PELANTY.. the dozy fucker cant say it right.. never does)

we wont qualify now.. gives the FA time enough to sack mclaren as he is clearly a fuckwit and put someone in charge with a view to building a team for next world cup. the points dropped before the russia game have cost us dear.

Cant think of any.

Rob Green- looks a little Shaky]
Chris Kirkland - Injury Prone
Ben Foster - Injured, needs experience
Scott Carson - Too inexperienced
David James - Can play topclass one week, dire the next
Kasper Schmeichal - Elgible, but whats to play for Denmark

Can't think of any more tbh

Oh boo fucking hoo..

15years ago Denmark won the European Championship.. This summer we're not even going! Cry more about your worldclass players tbfh!

"We're lacking a keeper, Gerrard and Lampard aren't playing the bestests they can and why can't we just win all? We're Engeland fo' fucks sake!"

No wonder all your worldclass players aren't performing at their best, when your media is doing nothing but telling them how much they suck, over and over again after tiny mistakes! You ppl are NEVER pleased unless you fucking win the cup are you?!


Cry me a fucking river tbh!

At least finally the media will stop falling over themselves to call us and our players "world class", they should do because...

World class players don't miss the chance the Gerrard had.
World class teams don't bring on players like Downing or Crouch.
World class teams don't lose 2 goals in 4 minutes
World class players don't give penalities away like Rooney did
World class teams don't draw 0-0 at home with Macedonia
World class players don't air kick the ball like Robinson did against Croatia

Average teams with average players do all the above.

Still, we are better then Russia and for that McClaren has to go if we don't qualify and we can get in a decent coach that can get a team to perform above itself, like Hiddink can obviously do.

even great players make stupid mistakes, thats called being human, but yes england is a good team, but a Championship favorit team ? no

Funny bit is, that should England get a bit of luck and qualify,
You'll start allover with the We are favorits!!! and when it goes wrong "even if it's the semi's" well..you all know the rest ;)
