Jeremiah said:He has been the only good thing about the England team so far, the rest have really underperformed. When the team struggle, Gerrard seems the only one with the class to change things around.
Jilson said:Now Owen is injured England will finally play 5 across the midfield.
Beckham on the right. J.Cole on the left with Hargreaves playing the holding role.
Both Gerrard and Lampard will get forward with Rooney. The final formation will look very much like 4 - 3 - 3. Rooney will drop back and play balls through to Lampard and Gerrard.
It's not about who is better it's being able to play both of them at the same time without one of them having to hold back while the other goes forward.
Owen is a big loss to England, but will force Sven to play the formation he should do.
Well thats my opinion.
Amildin said:Joe Cole has played the best as an all tournament performance imo, really gives it all he has. His volley was one of the best goals of the tourna imo, and that cross showed some real observation skill. Never gives up even with 2 defenders on him. Top class player.
Not saying Gerrard isnt playing well, he has really shined as well. Gerrard over lampard anyday![]()
:england:
elbeek said:Lampard has been crap all tournament. Gerrard way better on the first 3 games. IMO replace Lampard with Lennon.
Cozak said:could not agree more, 5 across should be good for england. crouch is no where near godo enough to fill owens boots.
soze said:Yes Beckham and Gerrard in the middle Cole and Lennon out wide

Calaen said:HAHAAHAHA Beckham is not a central midfield I would rather he play Hargreaves and have lennon and cole on the wings than play Beckham the only central midfielder that pulls out of tackles play there. He cant tackle and he does not win headers no fucking way!!!!!
soze said:If you are playing a 5 man midfield with a defensive midfielder tackaling back would not matter. He can do what he dose from any where on the pitch and i think Lennon should play and there is no chance of Becks being dropped so move him in field.
Forfid said:well to be honest both are good midfielders but i must point out two better choises:
a) Maniche
b) Costinha
both of them far superior in tactical positioning and playermaker
I would like to see real talented players getting their deserved prize.
If you disagree with me just go see Iran vs Portugal match
or Mexico vs Portugal Match.
Portugal will win the world cup 2006.
