Re: Frank Lampard

top quality CM in january or we are f*****. although milner did surprisingly well today, i think he'd struggle to be creative enough against the bottom sides or defensively sound against team like chelsea wh have muscle and power there

Re: Frank Lampard

Can't imagine he was signed with the intention to play in a midfield two at the Emirates. Was out of his depth and woefully lacking pace. Still, good addition to the squad but today was the worst possible situation for him to make his debut in.

Pellegrini probably had him pencilled in for a couple of appearances off the bench before making his first start against Wednesday.

If Lampard and Yaya's departures overlap, we really are in trouble.

Putting aside the complications of four top quality midfielders wanting game time, one January signing springs to mind. Homegrown eligible (very important), slightly disgruntled at his club, and has shown himself to be a pretty high level player.

i agree with schneiderlin, although if there are no restrictions id say just get pogba (add in nastasic as a sweetner) in jan and be done with it.

Can't see Juve selling if they're still in the champions league

With yaya off in jan for AFCON,we could have done with zuculini,sadly lampard is past it at the top level.

James Milner is a central midfielder, and was awesome I thought when he was moved into that position today.

Not sure our manager still fully understands the Premier League, how did he think he would get away with playing Lampard and Fernandino in a midfield two, against their midfield three.

Arsenal were there for the taking and we missed out. Chelsea won't thats for sure.

I was hoping for Fabulous Frank yesterday, but instead we got fat Frank.

It wasn't the strongest midfield he would have wanted, but circumstances made it happen. You can't blame MP for selecting them and you are being harsh in suggesting that he doesn't understand the Premier league. As it happens, like you say, Arsenal were there for the taking and its only a couple of bits of bad luck that robbed us of three easy points.

Re: Frank Lampard

Pellegrini doesn't fully understand the premier league. Despite the fact that he won it at the first attempt.

This might actually be the daftest comment I've ever read on here.
