Rubber bullets

Oscar does not look comfotable in that wide position.

Ramires injured?

An Amazon Kindle Fire and some money.

Merry Christmas you crazy diamonds.

This will be my last post concerning you, because frankly you are completely boring now. Concerning the length of your post, my only problem is that for the most part their are chunks that seem to be not needed and don't need to be put under your seemingly high standards of replies have to respond to every single line of your posts (which bearing in mind I was not the first person to bring this up). t was YOU that started to kick up a massive fuss over a little bit of criticism. It was YOU that tried to make weak and pathetic attempts to try and insult my intelligence and apparent lack of skill of taking in information. You say that you were not going to cry about it, but sometimes act like a five year old that has been told no and seem to act like the crime of the century was committed because someone did not speak about your precious Lampard in a 100% positive manner. You can not exactly take the moral high ground when ii comes to starting insults when your original post that started this stupid debate called the so called ''doubters'' ''plastic pieces of shit''. Like I said, you bore me to tears now and this debate will just go and on of insults flying around. Goodbye, merry Christmas and lay off the whiskey.

Wow, you really are the personification of grace and intelligence as you ingeniously make laughable attempts at using insults as it in anyway makes you sound rational and clear headed . Seriously you take things way too seriously that its becoming laughable, all I said was that you can make points and opinions without trying to use much words as possible, no need to go on another rampage about superior you are. I suggest you go for a lie down and come back when your feeling better. Anyway we are getting way off topic. This is the Frank Lampard thread, not a thread about your ego. Probably best I stop posting on this thread for a while so I stop contributing with your unhealthy behavior.

Yes, but if its just walls and walls of text that don't really bring anything new to the discussion, then sorry but after about 5 posts it does start getting tiring on the eyes. Sometimes shorter, snappy posts that tend to put the point across with just a little bit more detail can speak more then a 1,000 words. Quality over quantity as my History teacher said to me.

Thanks for the heads up. I've just copied that post in a Word document and it came up with over 1,100 words, that's nearly halfway the amount of words used in an Undergraduate essay. Yet its just babbling on the same points over and over again, along with some weak attempts of using insults.

Yes, it unlocked their defense, but both also need Ramires using his sublime pace to give him the option, the first one needed Ramires to continue the run into the box to pick out Drogba who had to get a difficult finish right and the second one needed Ramires giving a sublime chip (it takes two to tango), not to mention with the Napoli game, thins may have bee completely different if Mata did not get that away goal or Ashley Cole blocking a fourth goal of the line in the first leg, and Ramires giving that sublime cross for Drogba to head in for the second leg. I'm sorry but to me Ramires (who I think gets a but undervalued when it comes to our CL success) was a player who was more consistent in performances (there is a rason why he won the Players' Player of the year award and came second in the Player of the Year award and Lampard did not) and was a key part in the very defensive counter attacking strategy RDM was using. Everyone played a part (that includes the likes of tee unpopular Kalou and Meireles) but if we had (and I hate doing that) to draw a list of the most important - then Lampard would not make the top 3 or probably top 5). What the whole AVB fiasco got to me was not because necessarily Lampard got dropped (he actually started in the majority of games under AVB) but the fact that he would have one good game every now and then but a few awful performances, get dropped (for good reasons) then go and moan in the press. That's when my respect for him started to drain because he came across as a spoiled 6 year old. And it was not exactly like the CL win was a case of us playing dominating football with the likes of Lampard, Ramires, Mata or Mike completely dominating the field . It was a case of us playing extreme defensive football a lot of the time using mainly counter attacking tactics, not to mention a quite a bit of luck to hold on against the pressure The rest of the post is just rehashes of the same hit over and over again (although its funny when that you ignore the fact that Lampard was the captain during the Super Cup and CWC final, both where we had abysmal performances) although thanks to admitting your a fanboy, that means I know that rational debate on this subject matter is out of the question and I don't have to waste my energy.

Ever since he has been used at CB more regularly he has locked like his old self again. I think he is just one behind his highest goal tally and we have only just past the halfway mark.

Yes, and that was in the post. Te simple fact s that he is declining as a player and can't give first start performances week in week out, which does not reflect the wages he is getting. So Lampard was instrumental in winning the champions league? What about Drogba? What about Cech? What about Ramires? Cole? Mata? In my mind they played a more bigger part for these achievements last season and some were not throwing a tantrum in the first half of the season and contributed all year round. And I'm sorry but I really can't take you seriously, because you seem to get completely offended that some one had the audacity to not give 100% praise to him. Its like thinking that he was not brilliant all the time is a crime. Your fanboyism is just laughable and makes critical debate impossible. He had a good performances today. But they are fewer and fewer and in my opinion keeping him for more then 2 years on massive wages is logical. Experience is not an excuse and if he can't except a one year rolling deal then he has to leave, its his choice and the club should not change their policy for just one player. We are going to experience life without him anyway, and trying to squeeze every last second trying to make him a focal point of thee team is not doing anything for us long term, in fact some might argue that we have become too (at least thinking) reliant on him and have this small mentality that without Lampard equals doom and destruction.

Surprised that Fergie has not come out demanding Cesar Azpilicueta be banned from football, that ball that hit Torres' head could have killed him.

Blah, blah, blah - you want to sleep with him, we get it. But one good performance every once a while (and no he was not the best player against Leeds, Mata and Hazard should deserve that accolade) does not a contract make. If he excepts a one rolling year contract (like Drogba was offered only) then he can stay, but he doesn't - so its his choice, not the club.

Yes he gave a good performance today first the first time in a while, but so did the rest of the team on a poor Villa side. That does not constitute giving to all of Lampard's contract demands, get a grip man.

Have to admit, Luiz has really surprised me playing in DM. He was outstanding tonight

FANTASTICO!

What an absolutely over dramatic twat.

Wilkins is a nice guy, but completely clueless about tactics, formation and performances of players. If he had it his way, Drogba, Terry, Lampard, Ballack, Essien and Carvalho will all be here in there 40s

It will be interesting how that double pivot does with the Villa formation.

By the way, the Luiz Lampard pivot was the one Robbie Savage really wanted, so that's a big cause to worry.

Damn you twitter, why does gullibility never leave you.

Also, you have Luiz and Lamprd in the pivot, two players who want to get forward all the time, another big risk if they can't decide who stays in midfield.

Big risk leaving out Mata.

From the way he kept giving interviews in the summer about how his "development" has been stagnanted by Chelsea (http://www.express.co.uk/posts/view/339875/Romelu-Lukaku-s-parting-shot-at-Chelsea - and he did this several times from, about May, someeting getting to the point of irritaton.) and th fact that most top clubs employ a system with one striker he i doubt he will want to keep being sent on loan or playing second fiddle to Falcao or another striker if they become a hit.

I'll give you this for protection:
