I always thought Venice was overhyped until I went there. It is awesome. Avoid eating and drinking by the Grand Canal, the prices go through the roof! Other than that, just enjoy!
I think Lampard would say he is still learning now. One of the old school who trained hard and put in extra time on honing his skills. As did David Beckham.
He wont go in January but I think we would all be surprised if he doesn't go next summer. What are we supposed to do though? Buy crap players who no one else wants to buy? We are victims of our own success (as every club our size are when the "big" clubs want our players). Palace are this years Southampton and they will have the same problems if they keep this level of form up.
It puts his "miss" against United into context. The margin of success and failure is very slim. This shot was perfection, the one that hit the post slightly out.
Strikers need other players around them to feed off of and we haven't always played to Pelle's strengths. It was clear last season that the guy has quality. Not sure what else he needs to do to convince people that he is Premiership quality?
