He plays week in week out for Chelsea and we're expected to see him do the same for England. He has different players around him with the England team. He STILL does well though, he's been there for England. Scored some crucial goals but the fans seem to forget that. Euro 2004? France? Portugal? Where were the rest of them?

I'd like to ask McClaren this "IF YOU WENT TO SEE A TOP WEST END SHOW BUT THE CAST DECIDED THEY WOULD PERFORM LIKE A VILLAGE AMATURE DRAMATIC SOCIETY BECAUSE THEY HAD ANOTHER SHOW 4 DAYS LATER, WOULD YOU WANT TO EXPRESS AN OPINION"

Piesfortea (U8260471) posted Oct 15, 2007 It's a shame he's booed but I think it is more exasperation with McLaren. He persists on playing the 'stars' irrespective on how they gel together. It's ok to indulge this at club level where sides are built around key players. Gerard, Lampard, Rooney and Owen are all key players at their clubs. However at England level, they need to play as a team and rarely do. Gareth Barry fits in, does what he is told and compliments Gerard. Lampard swans around, gets in Gerards way and has the occassional shot from beyond the penalty box. It just doesn't work and you'd have thought McLaren would know this by now.
