    Hang on, how did he fail his country? 29 goals. 29! I'd blame him one of the least of that generation (if you want to blame any of them and personally I wouldn't).

    Am really surprised...even though I thought it came too soon for him I thought that after last season he'd really push on with those signings.

    Don't mate, just don't. Him and Snowy are clueless. Don't let them drag you down. Just remember you can't educate pork.

    Heskey was a striker and got 7 goals. Lampard was a midfielder and was the 10th highest scorer in English history, 2nd highest for a midfielder.

    "That Lionel Messi chap, never got his country to win a world cup - over-rated if you ask me. Proper chancer."

    Gerrard and Lampard could have played together but not in a 442 which was painfully obvious for years. Lampard in his Chelsea role was clearly a very effective player but we didn’t have a Makelele, Essien or Drogba to do the dirty work.

    Lampard never did **** all for England he along with others failed when it mattered.. Thats my point... Gerrard was the only one that did anything in the major competitions.. Lamps did not produce when it mattered.

    I never said he was good btw so try to stay on track
