Lampard's pretty much been the best Englishman this season. His form has been sensational.

But how often does he play for England like he plays for Chelsea?

 

[evertonfan]

I don't give a toss, can I not praise a player on form? Jesus Christ.

Does anyone else see the England games as an annoying interference to the leagues?

 

[Will_NA]

I very much do, Lee.

When needed lol? Yes, for Liverpool. Gerrard very rarely pulls something out of the hat for England. What you need is someone who ups their performance for their country. Someone young. Theo Walcott

Also, Crouch scored a winner against Argentina, albeit a friendly.

 

[evertonfan]

Hibbert for England....

Internationals annoy me though. For once Lee actually makes a valid point. I hate it that international week always seems to come on the back of a bad Everton performance so I have to wait for a seemingly endless period of time to see us rectify it.

Also, it seems everytime it's international week Robin Van Persie gets injured warming up for Holland.

 

[Will_NA]

Bungee jumping while high on funny brownies was never an effective warm up.

Spot on. I'm not going to suddenly start liking the Liverpool or Chelsea players just because they play for England either after having a go at them each week, seems very hypocritical.

Sorry for trying to debate on a forum :

 

[evertonfan]

Apology accepted. Although I wasn't really asking for one to be honest.

And here's a bit of injustice for you. Mansfield Town have been docked four points after being found guilty of fielding at least one ineligible player in the opening two games of the season. West Ham however get away with a slap on the wrist.

And I haven't actually mentioned it yet, but how does JT get his red card rescinded and Tim Cahill doesn't? Both of them should have been rescinded yet because we aren't Chelsea, United or Liverpool nothing happens. Argh.

 

[Sureshot]

Weren't they fined several million?

 

[evertonfan]

Yeah 5 million initially. But that's nothing compared to the money Sheffield United lost as a result of them going down when West Ham should have.

 

[Will_NA]

I'm just happy Neil Warnock went too.

 

[King Pietersen]

I thought I read somewhere that it was ?30million? :S
