England World Cup Hangover

International football England

comment on the article

I see Steve McClaren is blamimg a World Cup hangover for why England players haven't performed that well, he reckons it will take them 5 to 6 months to get over.

That's OK then, here were some people thinking the reason for England's poor results were due to some inept selections and tactics by the management, but hey it's just a question of waiting for them to get over their hangover.

Didn't Crotia have a rather disappointing World Cup. What was their hangover cure ?

Oh dear Chelsea illogical, you’re still here!?

OK then,

As far as stats go, they can be selectively shown to represent any side of a debate you like. Most people learn this in the latter years of their education, or early years of working life, which explains why you haven’t managed to ingest it yet.
I’ve already explained quite extensively why Lampard’s attacking stats upstage Gerrard’s for England. Now if we were to have a look at the defensive stats to see how well they supported my opinion, all of a sudden we’d be back to square one, as Gerrard’s would far outweigh those of Lampard.
So your “stats” don’t show anything at all, except for what you want them to by selectively choosing which ones to use to emphasise your point. Come on kiddo, this is basic. It’s not anyone else’s fault if you don’t have the intelligence to grasp it as quickly as EVERYONE else on here seems to have done.
You’re entitled to your opinion, flawed as it is, but you are quite clearly in a minority group of one.


36 shots – 0 goals = Best Attacking Midfielder in the World!!!??? LMAO laughlaughlaughlaughdoh
Only in your small world sunshine! laugh

Also, don’t start getting out of your pram and thinking you can throw some rubbish around about me because someone happened to call Deco a biatch. He is a biatch, but he’s still a far, far better AM than Lumpolard!
Think you’re clever cos you felt you might have someone to help you out? You still haven’t provided a single valid answer to any of the points I’ve raised, and everything you have managed to come back with, has been comprehensively shot down as the garbage that it is.
The only reason you can’t have a decent conversation with me, is because you don’t have the intelligence.

As for the name calling, you began that trend in your cut & paste collective marathon War & Peace post by calling me a “deluded muppet” – very intelligent and imaginative choice of insult by the way, I’m so upset. doh

All I’ve done is correctly point out that your points of view are moronic and cretinous, & wrong. Never mind the fact that they are completely biased as a result of you being a Chelsea fan, and Lampard lover/fan boy.
I’m a United fan for crying out loud, & am therefore not exactly going to be biased towards, or pick out a Liverpool player for praise unless he truly is good! I’m an impartial observer!
Never seen Lampard hold the Champions League trophy up as captain, after almost single handedly inspiring his team to victory in the final, have you? Of course not, because your club has never been to the top drawer European club competition final, never mind won it. Until Lampard has done that, I’m afraid it’s end of debate.

2 league titles in 50 years & you think you’re a top/big club!!?? laugh LMAO!! doh
Supported Chelsea since 1991? I’ve supported United since 1978 child, so don’t give me the big one about football knowledge, I’ve been watching the game for longer than you’ve been breathing.


Don’t try and get personal with me you silly little boy.

I think that judging Lampard on this world cup is very unfair. In Euro 2004 he scored 3 goals and was arguably England's best player. And getting 36 shots on goal in a world cup is a feat on its own. And an attacking midfielder is a very different role, then a wide midfielder(if you don't know that then you are a moron).

To be perfectly honest I think your both sad morons. Gerrard is better then Lampard, but their is no denying that Lampard is a brilliant midfielder. And you can't critisie Gerrard on his goal scoring. He can play any position on a team. And managers use him as a utility man. For England he has a defensive straight jacket around him and for Liverpool, he plays positions from; out wide to support striker.

Is Chelsea logic and Red-Ruud-Roon-Ron the same person? because you both joined 606 on exactly the same date.

>>because you both joined 606 on exactly the same date.

Red-Ruud-Roon-Ron

What another wonder goal by Lampard against Everton?

Lampard steps in as captain in Terry's absence and inspires a fantastic comeback which with West Ham beating Utd leaves a 2 point gap!

Wait till you come to the bridge for Chelsea will do exactly the same thing as they did to Utd last season. Stuff Em!

As for me getting personal? ROFL!laugh

Are you really that insecure?

Grow up you sad little manok
