Gerrard's lacklustre showing

[KD07]

is a cause for concern especially in light of the games coming up. I noticed he couldnt muster the energy to climb onto Crouchy's back during the celebrations that came after the opening goal.

 

I believe this is where Lampard slightly edges him as a player.

Gerrard lacks the ability to point classlessly and meaninglessly at the sky after scoring (particularly when deflected) in ignorant imitation of born-again christian brazilians too - very sad.

I think you're missing the essential 'irony' nature of the thread - it's like goldy and bronzey - only made of iron.

I think Gerrard needs to save his energy to be the first to join in with celebrations ala Beckham

Which is further indictment on Gerrard since Lampard has thus exhibited his footballing intelligence by knowing how to keep his runs in check due to a greater body fat percentage.

Is right - once you get that Cockney mass up to optimal momentum, the legs can shut down and save energy as the relative 'G' forces take over in a Newtonian stylee - again proving scientifically - as with Everton's 'school of science' Lampard too knows what he is about.

Indeed sir - spotters badge!

i think with Stevie playin so many games, he should just pat Crouch on the back and thats it!

 

Energy conservation is the key to hetting through the games!!!

He is learning how to score deflected goals like Sir Frank.

I think SteG has been told not to jump on Crouchy in case he snaps him. Which would be very messy.

I'm disappointed that he fails to fall properly when an opposition player comes withing 6 feet of him (a la Joe Cole). If he doesn't pay attention to this aspect of play in training I would consider benching him if I were SGE - Rafa obviously has a blind spot here as well, as the rest of the team also seem to lack this important skill.

[Bootle Buck]

I would rest him against WBA and have him practice on his deflections. He has to go a long way to match the severity of deflection Lampard gets. Only practice can help that.
