ChelseasMessiah 304 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 He can't even play regularly for England anymore, and if he goes to Brazil it will be because of his name since he won't be playing any meaningful game there.I can accept him starting for us for now because tbf to Mourinho he is the closest we have to a DLP. But things have to change in January.I don't think he's the closest thing to a DLP as I see KDB or Oscar much more suitable to doing that. He's only playing because Mourinho is here.

He's no longer considered an important player. The last 2 friendlies indicate as much - he played in the 'weaker' game along with a lot of other England reserves, while Woy used most of his starters against the Germans.Also if i remember correctly he only came on as a sub in the important qualifier against Poland?

svajo 153 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Frank Lampard has failed to score in 10 successive Premier League apps – his longest goal drought in the competition since April-August 2003. (Opta)That's sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChelseasMessiah 304 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 I think the last few matches for us and for England have shown Mourinho what he was reluctant to accept, let us hope he rectifies what has been our achilles heel so far this season so we can finally dominate the midfield in a game for once.

In fact it's either a lie or you're not watching every game. Either is likely with you. Stick to calling the proper supporters of this club 'plastic' and welcome to the ignore list.

Vybz Kartel 1,613 Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 I know this is mean, but the only way we will stop seeing him is if he gets injured of which I hope he does, I hate how Mourinho claims he picks players by merit he simpily does not Mouri_Matic, ChelseasMessiah, The Chels and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChelseasMessiah 304 Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 Farcical. Another dagger to the back of an attacking player while Lampard's status is unscathed despite being completely atrocious throughout the season. Even Hodgson knows he can't do it any more, why can't Mourinho grow a pair and do the right thing.We might win today, and Frank might even score, but that won't mask his overall inefficiency and acute lack of mobility.

Even Hodgson knows he can't do it any more, why can't Mourinho grow a pair and do the right thing.We might win today, and Frank might even score, but that won't mask his overall inefficiency and acute lack of mobility.Except he hasn't been near atrocious . He has had a bad three game stretch but overall has been so-so. He plays because he is our only central midfielder that can pass the ball the way Mourinho wants in his system. He leaves us more defensively vulnerable but without him, our central midfield really has no ability to make vertical passes at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been beyond atrocious, everywhere you go, most Chelsea fans are saying the same thing, even fans of other clubs find it mind boggling how he keeps playing despite being a complete and utter passenger. He's finished and there's nothing you can that could change it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
