Why English Managers Are Crap!

I was listening to the radio last night just before the Chelsea Watford game and the Watford manager was asked the question: If you were allowed to take one of Chelsea's squad who would you take?

Guess who he said:

Crespo? No
Mutu? No
Desaily? No
Gallas? No
Makelele? No
Geremi? No
Babayaro? No
Petit? No
Veron? No
Hasslebank? No

Frank Lampard!

RudeBoy, Lampard is the only Chelsea player to have started every EPL game. Ironically enough, with all the money they've spent, he's their best player. What is so silly about choosing him over others? Any person whos seen Chelsea play this season would do the same.

He is perhaps one of the very best players in the Priemiership at this point in time. What is bad about another coach wanting him in his team?

What the *(&^$ is best about lampard? A central midfielder who cannot hold the ball when he is under pressure. Have you noticed that Makalele hardly passes the ball to him in the middle bcos of turnovers. Lampards is grossly over hyped. Can you compare him to Man-u's Kleber or Arsenal's Gilberto. McManaman is still the best english midfielder.

That is why Chelsea are where they are if he is their best player! With all those names I've mentioned you go for Lampard? Stop reading English papers they are brainwashing you!

Every player does a part,and Lampard is only doing 1/11 of that work.

He's changed from Tiger head to Tudor.

Lampard has been outstanding this season. He is easily outshined both Makelele and Geremi as well as Petit and Veron in the midfield.

He has developed incredibly in these last 2 years. He has made the big jump from a mediocre player to a world class player.

Just because he has improved doesn't mean he is good enough!

Could he get in the French National team? No, England? No! Nigeria? No Argentina? No! How about Arsenal? Man Utd? No No No!

If I were Eriksson, he would never leave my starting XI
