Cant really remember a time i have said anything good about Gerrad or Lampard for England they cant play together, not just in midfield but in same team. Ferdinand looked awful against Mexico like a man that had lost 3 yards of pace. Terry didnt have a fucking clue what to do when Germany attacked during WC James is just well passed it and was out of posistion for 2 of the germany goals needs to be moved out
We need to get the younger ones in and get them used to international level, we cant keep playing the same useless ***** because they play well for there clubs. It has always been the case and Cappelo said as much in that interview he did
Fuck em all, they are a disgrace and dont deserve to wear the england shirt anymore
Lampard and Gerrard may not play well all the time in the same midfield, but what suggests that a midfield of 2 untried young players will do better? I can't think of a young English goalscoring midfielder like Lampard, or an all action type like Gerrard. Just playing one of the two could work.
Playing youngsters isn't necessarily going to solve all Englands problems. Too many people are looking at Germany, and think if we do the same, we'll suddenly be as good as they are. Its doesnt work like that. A chunk of those German players have been playing together since U-17 level, they been together for years, and have a good relationship with each other. England's youth teams chop and change regularly, one minute Walcott's deemed to be good enough for senior level, next minute back into the U-21's, same with Agbonlahor, Lennon, etc. Also our youngsters aren't as good as Germany's. I think only Milner and Hart were the only players who featured in the 2009 U-21 Euro's were in the England team. Compare that with the number Germany had.
