He tried to "put Rooney in" (I believe that's the sort of expression you might use) on at least two occasions when he should have had a shot himself yesterday

Personally I hope he keeps trying. It seems much the same as Beckham not giving up on trying to score from a free kick whilst people slag him off all over the place...

hmmm... he's had more shots than the rest of the england team because he is a self-centred glory boy who is more interested in getting his name on the back pages of the tabloids than in england actually winning anything.

there. I've said it.

That's bollocks I'm sorry. Arbuckle is missing chances granted, but the reason he's making those runs and getting into those positions (far more than any Brazillain midfielder is doing for example, even more than Kaka) is for the benefit of the team, if he'd have converted half the chances he's had we be lauding the cunt. That said, he needs to start putting them away that's for sure.

yeah, true.

couldn't make a 3 yard pass though, could he?

:D

Presumably you were saying the same about Crouch during his first 18 games at Liverpool.

see? that's exactly my point.

lampard gets feted by all the papers and by a certain section of the fans because he scores goals.

great. important that he can do that.

but it masks a deficiency in the rest of his game. his tackling and passing are decidedly average.

honestly, when you're as sadly obsessed with the fat, tactless cunt as I am you tend to notice how often he gives the ball away.

I could care less about his current lack of goals, or at least I would be if he was passing or tackling at anything like an adequate standard.

However, he has taken more shots then the rest of the england team combined so at least he is trying.

And every single one was lousy - he had great chances which he just threw away. Or doesn't that matter? He's not trying hard enough.
 
England haven't really looked like scoring at any point in this world cup(except t&t game i guess) so the fact that a midfielder is prepared to take pot shots is a good thing if he found his shooting boots it would be better, but i don't see too many other england players looking like they are capable of scoring or even creating anything.

Yea but he's being selfish with the ball and attempting silly 'I wanna be a hero like Gerrad' shots, even though he can't shoot straight from a few yards and sacrificing passing the ball for someone else to have a better crack at it.

I don't mind a player trying to find form but to do it at the expense of the team is poor and not what England need.
 
Well at least he's good at something.... taken from the ever reliable Popbitch..

Ok dok, here we go...this just in from the world cup.

Which two English players have battered the shit out of each other because one of them caught the other one getting a gobble from their lovely girlfriend in the bogs?

Apparently it's all a bit secret squirrel...but i'm feeling generous so I'll give you a clue.

Would you duck if you hit a lamp hard?

...disclaimer...I know nothing about football, so if this is common knowledge or a pile of shit, I apologise in advance...but if it's a world exlusive, then yay for me!

a crouch and lampard punch up???!? that I would pay to see.

"SMACK HIM PETE!"
 
Like the majority of the England squad, over-rated. Brilliant at Premiere League level, but technically and creatively lacking at international level. (same for gerrard)
 
Absolute shite, cant do a forward pass, shit at shooting, doesnt track back, wank at penalties.

Should i continue? :D
 
I just feel sorry for him now, he's not an international player.

I'll never blame anyone for missing in a shootout and in truth he was mentally shot and should never have been there, but for the previous 480 minutes (more if you include the friendlies,) he pipped jason wilcox for the title of 'worst performance I've ever seen in an england shirt' on more than one occasion.

Again, its difficult to blame him, harry harris, the scum amongst many others are to blame for blowing up an average player into something he quite clearly is not.
 
Sven should have substituted him before today's game to make him buck his ideas up. He's been given a free pass to play badly all through the tournament.
 
had more shots on goal than anyone else and missed them all. :rolleyes:
the only consolation i might take out of it will be if he loses
all his confidence for chelski

too right! And he missed a sitter, but then again so did Crouch.
 
like i've said before, he's done nothing outside of the english prem. He's good when he's got the chelsea midfield around him. When he has to do a bit himself, he's average

lampard, final verdict?

Why the hell did they play him in such an important game - he hasn't hit anything that would nearly be a goal since the start. And to give him a penalty - aaarrrggghhhhhhhh!!!!!

Some pundit on BBC described him as the second best footballer in the world - does anybody really think that?
 
lampard

The sole reason why Frank Lampard looks so good when playing in the premiership was on view playing for France against Brazil.


CLAUDE MAKALELE.

Anyone care to bet on how many games Frank gets next season with Ballack and Essien both better in his position?
