I honestly believe he is not World Class. Great club player definitely, World class? No way, I'm sorry but modern football media induced fans like yourself throw out plaudits like that to people who really do not deserve it. World class should be reserved for the very few and far between, the likes of Ronaldo, Messi etc rather than a player who didn't have the bollocks to go and test himself because he knew, unlike you, that he would have paled into insignificance next to true World Class players.

My opinion isn't based soley on that at all, but when a manager of Mourinhos calibre tries to put you in the starting XI of three top european sides you are up there amongst the best. It wasnt a media story it was a video of Jose stating how he wanted to sign him so often, give it a watch.
Now do you honestly believe he isn't world class, or just picking an argument ?

Kezman wasn't a Cokehead,
Mutu was.

No, it definitely does not. All managers make poor signings, to base your opinion solely on that shows you up yet once again Rossal. hardly surprising to see you are basing your opinion on a media story though, as always.

I've always questioned Gerrard as a man considering he's raising 3 kids that aren't his.
I dunno.
Call me strange but that just makes me question the bollocks of a man.

Re: 'Stevie-G' love in

The best manager of the current generation trying to sign a player for 3 different sides all competing at the highest level of club football doesn't make him world class ?
Come off it, and in reply Pancho i think the farewell has been ramped up for him being english and the fact its a 1 club career, and that club being Liverpool who always attract more media spotlight

Re: 'Stevie-G' love in

Not at all, you seem to be having a bit of a Mourinho love in, just because he wants to sign a player it doesn't suddenly make that player world class.
Obviously pushing Thiago down the pecking order would have though.

No real point to that apart from coming up with a way to disagree purely for the sake of it

I think he should have gone to Chelsea.
I think he should have done more for England.
I also think he's a brilliant midfielder.
I don't think he deserves the level of acclaim he's getting at the moment which was blanket press coverage over the weekend.
That's all.

so because they havent won a international honour players are not deemed to be regarded in the top bracket ?

You mean Ballack who came 2nd and 3rd with Germany in the WC.
Or Makelele who came 2nd with France?

Re: 'Stevie-G' love in

loads, been countless top centre midfielders across europe in that period
Club wise he is up there, think the clearest indication of that is that Mourinho tried to sign him 3 times, look at the CM's there at each club and that tells you the company he is in

He would have done better for England if he'd had Carrick alongside him rather than Lampard.

2006 fa cup would have been ours if he weren't playing. We was seconds away and no-one else could of struck that
2005 Champs league he bailed them out with a moment of brilliance against Olympiakos and then started the comeback in the final with a goal again out of nothing
The bloke is up there with the best midfielders in the world over the last 15 years

I'm not saying the bloke isn't a great player, if anything I'm saying he is.
But he doesn't deserve the level of hysteria surrounding his retirement from Liverpool. He should of achieved a lot more. Especially with England.
That's all.

to be fair to accomodateLampard he must have spent over half his England career playing either a deeper role or stuck out on the left
