Strong defensively? Erm..... Cahill - out Rio - not selected Terry - many black players on the picth tonight, may be a cause for concern....also hes injured and playing him means he will likely miss the rest of the tournament ( WELL ****ING DONE WOY YOU DAFT **** ) Lescott - I can hear france laughing They are our best 4 CB. We are weak as **** defensively, may aswell just not bother playing. There has never been a worse england team than this one.
Hart is very good. Johnson not bad. Terry shouldn't be playing and thats nothing to do with the racist scandal. Lescott. Total joke. Cole. Good still but getting on. Defence not bad. Pity about the rest.
While I know he had a good season, the best out of the England defenders it was all down to Kompany. Hes a competent defender and nothing more. Other countries would probably fold if they had to select him, Carroll, Henderson, Downing and co..... **** even Scotland wouldnt select them.
Lescott is a joke. Nothing to do with sour grapes. City's defence was good because of Hart and Kompany.
] Hart is a decent keeper but one of the best in the world. Bullshit, thats a myth created by the english media. Hes good but hes not one of those keepers in the very very top bracket, not yet anyway. Johnson - average player at best, Richards is twice the player, Jones is better and hes not even a right back. Terry - shocking footballer, without a fast, skilled and talented player alongside him hes ****ed. Just look whos partnered him his whole career, superior defenders who cover for him. Lescott - Exactly the same as Terry. this partnership will be torn apart by the pace of france. Cole - the one top class defender we have.......his performance will be hampered by the **** ****s alongside him. Comapre the CD to Kompany and Vidic and you notice the massive massive insane gap in quality.
Its a dig at how **** our team is. Rivalry aside hes picked a team of players who finished 8th last season. Players who shouldnt even be in their clubs first team in some cases. Anyway....how is it sour grapes......I mean......whats to be sour about...8th lol..........so?
No its not. Lescott was a liability all season and has been since he first played for City. Awful defender who wouldnt get in most top clubs reserves.
United took a stronger team to goal difference over the course of a season with Ferdinand in the team most of the time (he only played half a dozen games less than Lescott). So using your logic... Ferdinand>Terry, Cahill, Jagielka And as Jones played right back in that team for most of the season I guess it's Jones>Johnson and Kelly.
Someone call the press, me and Baz agree on something! Lescott isn't that bad. I'd go as far as to say it's correct he's been picked ahead of Jones.
Buffon, Cassillas, Neuer, Cech, Lloris. England managers.....how well have they done recently? Thats what I thought, I would take my opinion over theres on this one as they have proved they know **** all while I have not been given the chance. Poor central defenders make more tackles as they make more mistakes. Tery makes loads mof last ditch tackles because even the most average players can turn him and run.....unless hes got cover....like a vastly superior defender. His thuggishness makes people think hes a true english leader.......... other countries call them convicts. Kompany was the reason people think lescott had a good season so you agree about the rest being ****? Vidic is the best defender in the league closely followed by Kompany. Together they would be the best defence on earth. Compared to these two englands defence may as well contain statues.
Why its true. Lescott is just a defender, nothing more. Slightly better than Bramble but a world away from the top defenders. Any time city were under threat Kompany sorted it....when Komapny was out last season......City fell apart and Lescott was shocking. I think I have made my point.
Erm I think you will find its United who could and should of walked it......8 points was the biggest game of the season. City won it because we lost it. Also real teams win on points
I dont think he does, the level below. Could make it there though. De Gea is on a similar level, take into consideration its his first season in england and considering he outdid some of those on that list, hes not quite at Harts but by the ned of next season that could change. Spain are one lucky country, world class midfielders galore and top class keepers aswell.
Both were. When United lost Vidic we did ok. Thats because we dont have a useless **** like Lescott in the squad. When Vidic was injured, Rio stepped up and took charge of the defence. Did lescott do this? Did he ****.
Watch Cahill. The lad is no slouch when it comes to pace and can defend. But for me as a defender he is quite comfortable with the ball. Far more than Lescott and Terry are.
