How many more deflected goals with Lampard get?!

Lampard deflected goals = Gerrard's penalties won by diving - 5.

Gerrard would've definitely been given the penalty when Malouda was pushed over.

I guess things balance themselves out, after Malouda was gifted a mystery penalty at Anfield a few years ago.

As long as he's captain of my fantasy football team I couldn't care if Lampard's goals go in off his foot, shin, knee or backside.


"There are not many players who come out publicly and hold their hands up like I did after the Everton game.
I also had an air-kick at Wolves but, apart from that, I am pleased with my form this year.
In the first half of the season I was in really good form but after a couple of bad results, and what has gone on in recent weeks, the spotlight has been on me. But I feel as though I am playing well.
I played well against Egypt. It was important for me to come through that with a good performance.
I think I did carry on as a leader against Egypt. I think anyone who was watching the game could see that."

Do you get points for FA cup games?

Maybe...

"The club will give me a new contract if they want to. If not it doesn't matter, I'll still play my best and if I have to move then I'll move, no problem. It wouldn't bother me. I made the England decision quickly and didn't dwell on it, and I'm not scared of making big decisions. It's a club thing. It's down to them. I'll keep playing and see where it takes me."

"I don't know how much longer I can stay on the bench. I have waited for four years and I enjoy my time here, but maybe I need to change it. I want to stay with Sir Alex because he is a great manager and we will try to find a solution because I am not happy to sit on the bench any more. I have always said if I feel I am not developing any more I will have to change something and that moment has arrived. I want to win things and I think I've proved I am good enough to be No.1 at United."

No ta. Any of the French clubs away please

Dont mind myself wherever we play its free for season ticket holders, unless we get catalans away

Everton were irresistable again today. Is there a better left sided combination in the Premier League than Baines and Pienaar? Both sensational again today. As was Sir Mikel of Arteta, he's getting back to his best and I find it quite staggering that the big clubs haven't at least tried to sign him. Sensational today.

Young Jack the lad came on again for his goalscoring cameo. Tag another million onto the price tag everytime he scores.

Seriously, don't get carried away. Our crappy tactics and starting formation of 4-5-1 made you look far, far better than you actually are.

Without Arteta, you don't really have much else.

Did he score all five?

He scored two. Hull scored an own goal, which was nice of them. Landon Donovan got another and he's off back to LA now. So take away Arteta's two, the OG and the now departed Donovan's goal and you only drew.

I like that reasoning

He pretty much scored the first 3, after which Phil Brown finally realised 2 strikers up front might be a slightly better way to score goals (rather than have 1 weighing the same as 2). Unfortunately, this left us light at the back, and 2 more goals materialised.

Have you seen our away record? More proof not to get carried away

Bar the odd game here and there Everton have played like that since Donovan signed. Certainly at home we've beaten City, United and Chelsea.

Spot on, we play our best football when 4-4-2 as has been proved against Man City/Chelsea and many more occasions. We simply dont have the players that are good enough to play 4-5-1 and get a result yet Brown still plays it

you simply dont have the players that are good enough to play full stop

I don't think there was anything wrong with Hull's formation, it's the players. They are just dumb lower league standard players. Whenever Baines, Neville, Jagielka or Distin got the ball they had a choice between Arteta, Heitinga and Yakubu all the time. Hull just didn't get close enough.

Defending in football is generally a choice between man marking and zonal marking. Hull were doing neither, they were getting 10 men behind the ball, but leaving Arteta completely unmarked.

If you are playing against Everton you man mark Arteta, you man mark Pienaar and you push up to stop Baines getting down the wing. Hull sat deep and ignored Everton's dangermen.

You will also find that gun crime has risen as the popularity of Buckaroo has fallen.

How many international caps has the world class midfielder got?

I think Klasnic is a smashing player. Would love to see him and CY Lee at City. Lee is my favourite non-City player at the moment. I like watching him play. Genuinely clever and skillful footballer.
