Where was the effort, the passon, the performance? Rooney plenty of effort but not match sharp due to lack or recent footy. Cole did well Downing & Nevile OK King, struggled Carrick, dissapointing Robinson, untested Mind you I've had a beer or two
That was a worrying performance. There was something missing that I can't quite put my finger on, but it looks like McLaren's putting a new system into effect that the players haven't got used to yet. How long will it take people to realise that Gerrard and Lampard aren't great in the same midfield either. Crouch was the star performer and Wright-Phillips looked good when he came on, (there's a man who needs more first team football). King was very goood at the back but other than that it was very mediocre. Neville should have scored from 4 yards out, but a win wouldn't have been deserved. We should have no trouble winning the group, and the tactics will come together soon I hope. At least we didn't lose
Agreed! Problem is with gerrard and lamps who do you drop? On yesterdays performance i would have to say Gerrard, I know he is a good player but he doesnt seem to have brought his game the last few games and i think that he needs a time out to recharge. I am not overly impressed with Rooney at the moment and think on current form Bent should be starting up front with Crouch. Nevilles miss was schoolboyish to say the least, a blind man could have found the net with a golden opportunity like that, never been a great Neville fan and i tend to think that he has had his day and should make way for fresher legs. It will be a good test when we next play as Gerrard is on a ban, see how Lampard performs then, prove the point!
