Lampard is a good player, I do agree, but positionally he isnt an aweful lot better than Gerrard, the dufference is he is still playing with decent midfielders were as Gerrards playing with absolute garbage ATM. My issue is that the england squad for the Euros should be loaded with players that will be in their prime at the next WC, gerrard 'may' make it, Lampard will not, add to that fact that we have consistantly wasted our second best midfielder of a generation trying to play Lamps or Gerrard together instead of utilising either in the way they play for their first teams and the fact that I still have the image of him laughing and joking after the mess of south africa and Germany.

He has more to his game than billy, is younger. How quick is Rhodes ? -
People were not saying that when he was deployed with right tactics and players, he is surrounded by guff at Liverpool now a days, brilliant player if you usehim right. I hate Lampard, and TBH much like Gerrard he needs to be shielded by other players.

Sorry Crabby how anyone can pick Lampard over Gerrard is beyond me
-
Id like to see the squad with an eye to the future, play Gerrard properly and drop Lampard and Terry

No, he was a pretty consistant cog and the games I have seen of him has shown to be a decent, dynamic midfielder capable of winning the ball and retaining it, exactly what we need IMO And hopefully not on tons of money. That said none of us have any idea where we are aiming, but I would say in the interests of not breaking the bank these players, inc Jarvis, fletcher etc are our level -

Bostwick was quality for me in my CCC and league 1 days with Crawley, for three seasons he scored about 15 goals from CB, brilliant. -

No john guidetti, strange that is IMO considering the glittering form he has had in Holland -

TBH I have never really agreed with anyone who slags off Guly to this extreme, winning a game of football is more than running around like a moron. -

Well, either way it would be incredibly helpful, perhaps you could appoint someone, also bringing DOF into clubs would be interesting Exactly Clarky -
Whats your point hammy ?

What would be good is if you could give your assistant manager names of players to sell or loan and he gets on with it for you -

We have a pacey winger, not that we use one TBH niether is he any good. We play a compact 4222 formation, sometimes more like a 41212 but nevertheless very fluid, we gain most of our width from our full backs and attempt to gain control in the middle of the park. So what would a box to box midfielder actually do ? That said Cork or chappers could possibly do this role. Why does everyone bang on about a goalscoring midfielder aswell ? Guly and lallana both filled in with that role -

Improve what ? Why does everyone think teams can only play a standard 442 ? We dont Get over it -
Did he get his Tesco green points ?

If he was able to carry on his form from Manures CL final season then yes, fantastic player in the position he plays, dont listen to the mongs, his absence has seriously weakened United IMO. And if I remember rightly he didnt play the final against Barca.

Once again, Harry is not the clubs chairman, if they dont have the money they should not spend it Simples Plus its wildly regarded that he gets the best out of his players and is regarded as a great man manager, yeah he took us down but thats as much Lowes fault as the saggy chopped ***** Nevertheless he would have been the best choice for england for me.

Exactly, its important to not follow QPRs style, basically sign anyone with any prem experience, but sign hungry players that fit our style, we are a technically gifted team, with a good engine, and thats the sort of players we need. Tomkins Wheater Dann Davies Sol Bamba All better quality then Knight

Id look at Wheater, Reo-coker and Eagles, not saying sign them all but all are decent players at this level
