Seriously?

Im not being funny but they have not gone above us all season infact they haven't been above us in the table AT ANY POINT since 2008/2009. The best they have got is level on points and even that has only happened twice (one of which in August this year after the first 3 games).

How can they be better than us? :/

Say that to me at the end of the season.

Not this again! This comparison has died down for a while but in the Jose years it was EVERYWHERE when England couldn't make their mind up on what to do with the two of them. They're different types of players playing for different teams. Lampard is better at certain things and Gerrard is better at certain things. Can we leave it at that? Both have done special things in their careers individually speaking. In terms of club honours, they are pretty much equal (I don't count any of that Asia Cup nonsense)

I swear a lot of this is because they both have names that sound similar...

Technically as a footballer, Gerrard is better. He's a better passer, has a better long range shot, is a better tackler and is quicker. Lampard is smarter, has the better football brain. He see's opportunities to sneak in a get crucial goals very often, much more often than Gerrard.

Gerrard is a creative midfielder.

Lampard is a goalscoring midfielder.

The best 2 at what they do, at least in the premiership over the last decade.

I always put it down to Gerrard having MUCH more natural ability as a player than Lampard and that Lampard over the years has tried much harder and practices to get where he's at and do what he he does well.

So it probably comes down to personal preference, are naturally gifted players better than the ones that have to work in other areas? :S

Yes! Well put. Agree with your post.

Completely disagree. Lampards passing, especially when he was younger was sublime. Im sure at one point he had over 80% pass success ratio, consistently.
