brummie Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 I thought City's performance today was as good an example of a team of mercenaries not giving a flying fuck as I have ever seen. Shocking. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 I thought City's performance today was as good an example of a team of mercenaries not giving a flying fuck as I have ever seen. Shocking. That coupled with thinking they didn't need to bother trying in order too win. Doesn't help the manager seems to give even less of a toss. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone on Blue Moon summed it up quite well when they said that they showed today that they are still miles away from being a big club as opposed to a club with a load of money.

Neil Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Wouldn't argue about Scholes. But that's no major criticism of Lampard IMO as Scholes is one of the greatest English midfielders ever too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keys and Grey claiming he's 'the greatest midfielder of his generation' on their Twitter. Fucking Wumming twats He doesn't have much to his game other than shooting from anywhere. Some go in, some are going anywhere near the target before being deflected in and some fly high or wide. He doesn't beat players like Gazza or split defences with a pass like Hoddle. He ,honestly to me, picks up the ball 25-40 yards out and advances 5-10 yards and shoots. His goal record as I say is fantastic, yet despite that strangely, I find him vastly over rated.

ElDiablo Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Lampard is up there with Scholes. I think people romanticise Scholes a bit because his peak was about 10 years ago and underrate Lampard because he's still playing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think people romanticise Scholes a bit because his peak was about 10 years ago and underrate Lampard because he's still playing. He's not up there with Scholes at his best like. His passing is underrated but he has never been able to run a game like Scholes could. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TenkoDaLuz Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 I'm devastated. For me you could play for us in the Wednesday final. Don't care. I'm completely shattered. I used to believe in destiny and justice, but there's no such thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

His passing is underrated but he has never been able to run a game like Scholes could. It depends what you define as important in a midfielder, Lampard's goal return means he simply has to be up there for me. Technically Scholes edges it, but a lot of Lampard's attributes such as positioning and timing of runs goes unnoticed a lot of the time because they're not overt and off the ball.

Teasy Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 On the plus side, a Wigan win prevented Man City from overtaking us in the most unsuccessful clubs table. FYP We're joint 8th most successful club in the country ya silly fucker Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
