Lampard does a lot for England. I personally think Gerard is a better player, but Lampard does a lot of little things at the back. If you say that to have them both in the middle England wont win is an understatement. England does have a strong chance this year, I just think that goaltending is their key weakness. They don't have the Didas or Lehnmans. Robinson is a just above average goalie. He is no Peter Shilton or Dave Seaman.
Anyway, my point was that all this bashing of Lampard isn't worth it. He's always a dangerous force in the middle and comes back to help out at the back. You can't ask from his more than what he's doing. Yes, sometimes he has bad games. That's every player. Ronaldinho also had a bad game this tournament. It happens to everyone. But everytime he's on that pitch, he's dangerous in every way, you don't cover him properly and he'll make you pay! |
what games have you been watching! He's been the worst England player. There is more to the game than simply having a crack or two at the net during a game. He cannot beat a man, or create opportunities in forward play and constantly is going backwards. That is the mark of someone without any confidence. Watch him very closely in the next game. I hope he improves but I doubt Sven will drop him even if he continues to be a ghost out there. |
