what a useless player for England


Does Lampard get criticized more than Gerrard? Lampard has always been the better performer to me for England.

dunno, i stray from the press, but people aren't as up in arms about thisguy being captain as they ought to be.

lamps and carrick shielding defense
walcott rooney young
welbeck

is the best we can do imo

 

[Mané Swagincha]

Its obvious Gerrard is the better player and captain when compared to Lampard, its just that at Chelsea, Lampard has better players around him. While Gerrard has to do double the work because of the Spearings and Hendersons around him, hes been subdued to playing dm/cm/am trying to makeup for the inferiority at his side You mates should be proud to have such a loyal ambassador of the game serve the nation.

tbf my ignore list now is probably who dalglish would've signed this summer if he didn't get stopped.

England 1-1 USA

12th June, 2010

World Cup; Royal Bafokeng Stadium

With John Terry stripped of the England captaincy, defender Rio Ferdinand got the chance to lead his country in South Africa. However, injury led to the Manchester United centre back missing out, and Gerrard got the armband for the big stage.

He instantly showed why he was the right choice, scoring after four minutes on a night to forget for Robert Green, whose howler allowed the underdogs to claim a surprise point.

Whilst the trip ultimately proved to be a failure for the Three Lions, individually it was Gerrard who stood out as England’s best player, and he now gets another chance at a major tournament.

he put in one of the most inept performances ive ever seen from a world cup finals midfielder

England MOTM that game was Heskey, I was terrified every time he touched the ball.

And no I'm not an English c*nt so that is not a joke!

Anyone see the Dictator yet? I wanted to go today/tomorrow but fukk brehs, I don't wanna miss Copa Lib.

 

[Mané Swagincha]

Tough game today against Libertad in Asunción. Hopefully we score 1 or 2 goals so we can have a manageable result for the 2nd leg here in Santiago.

It seems Junior wont play though

Ya dont seem to miss him now, but how did La U cope after we bought Montillo from you?

Vascú and Cúrinthia should be promising

It died down after Vascos good run in Libertadores..did a quick search on it and didnt see anything different than what was originally posted, local Serie A club and city rivals Atletico MG also had a court order to arrest based on slave like conditions in their training facility...ill try to keep you posted

 

[Jmare007]

Too many mistakes. Libertad is playing very smart football.

Hopefully we can tie this shyt or pull off a 1-2 score.

Had a horrible 2nd semester in 2010 after Montillo left. The team didn't recover from his departure and the Libertadores semis loss to Chivas and played like shyt for the rest of the year.

Pelusso had to go after that and we signed Sampaoli. Diaz and Aranguiz are key in his system and are what Montillo once was for us (it took 4 months and an historic comeback in Apertura's 11' Final before everything started to click though).

 

[Roaden Polynice]

delusional about what?

About this pub team tournament actually being important/exciting.

Now if you'll excuse me, it's time for the DC - Rapids match

 

[Jmare007]

1-1

awful game, but I'll take it

 

[yoyoyo1]
