Anonymous in my opinion & I was one of those saying he should of been playing years ago. Perhaps slightly unfair baring in mind there were several worse players than him out there though.
I didn't see it, not even the highlights, but from the commentary I heard on the radio Parker seemed involved. I must have been listening nearly 15 minutes before I heard Carrick's name.
I don't know whether that is a true reflection or not.
He played out of position so was largely ineffective
Just like Hargreaves when he was played out of position
Here's a radical thought for McLaren - perhaps if we play people in their correct positions we might get the best out of them. Sadly this means we MIGHT need to drop Lampard so will never happen.
A fit and confident Lampard should be in the team IMO, however when he isn't drop him. I cant understand this mentality of playing the "name" players just because they're "names". If hes off form drop him... Rooney included.
Only Robinson & Parker out of the starting Eleven last night does not play for one of Chelsea/Manu/Liverpool says it all really. Then Replace Gerrard who was banned for Parker & it's all the outfield players. It's like one of them members only clubs playing for England. Pleased Scottie got a go but hardly covered himself in glory did he. Bent can feel pleased with his contribution though.
