Lampard To Juve ??? I Doubt (4 Viewers)

[Primo]

Hmmm, am I the only one who rates him highly? I think he has good distribution skills. But I still rate Gerrard higher than Lampard. Perhaps we can buy that other Englishman instead

Lampard can pass more than 5 yards, he plays the long balls to drogba. His technique and ball control IS average, and his shots aren't exactly the best. I would definately rate Gerrard above him.

if we use Lamps as an attacking midfielder he is good...Gerrard is more of an all-round player...so depends what u r looking for

 

[Tha Bo$$]

I think it's useless to talk about Lampard as he will not come to a team that's not even in Europe.

For the record, I see almost every game Lampard plays in and I think he has great shot technique, good ball control and a decent passing ability. The problem is I don't think he'd get the chances to shoot in serie A, that he does in the prem.

Actually we need a creative playmaker and Defensive midfielder...
but it all depends on what our great transfer guru wants! ...:eyebrows:

 

[ferdyan]

i prefer gerrard better than lampard

 

[fender06]

if he comes, his wage will be the highest...higher than our captain..

Its not the distance of pass that matters. Beckam in that case would be the best play-maker in the world. You need to have variety of passes, and you need to disguise the pass well. Furthermore, in every build up, you need players who doesnt make great passes, but reads the flow of the pass well, so position themselves to receive the ball and keep the flow going with simple 5 7 yard passes. IMO Lampard does none of those things very well, and in my book, he is more forward than midfield. What matters is not where coach pencil the player in the team-sheet, but the role the players has and how he performs them.

I think he is very good and has a very strong shot...he will score many goals next season if he come to us...of course Gerrard is better. There is no one as good as gerrard as a complete midfielder so thats stupid to say we shouldnt try for him bc hes not as good as Gerrard. He is classy and I would love to have him at Juve

I was contradicting somebody who said Lampard can't pass more than 5 yards, i didnt meant it to be a significant sign of his passing abilities.

I don't think Lampard has superb passing, although he does frequently play the good long balls. For his transfer pice and salary he might be a good buy, but can he fit in serie A is another matter. He's got a good shot but again not one of the best.

Gerrard is yards above him. I'm sorry, Gerrard is an all-round mifield but he excels in each of those areas more than Lampard. You can play Gerrard at DMC, RM, MC, or AMC and he will play better than Lampard in any of those positions.

Just watch clips of Gerrard's goals and Lampard's and you'll see the differance.

 

[Bjerknes]

Of course Gerrard is a better player than Lamps, but come on here lets not underrate the player. Lampard is still very good around the box and better than any midfielder we have at the moment. He'll never be as good as Nedved once was but he still could be a great player for us. Lets not kid ourselves here.

 

[Badass J Elkann]

1 thing that troubles me is lampard's greed of the ball and lack of team play

Like I've said before, he is very mobile and has an eye for goal. But Im not so sure he will do as well in serie A. I personally don't think the price is too expensive (transfer+salary combined) regardless of what people think. I just dont have a clear idea on where he might fit in.

 

[Mark]

Would he fit in a 4-1-2-1-2 behind the strikers?

It all depends on the other midfielders partnering him and if his role is attacking only or attacking plus sharing in defending. But generally, I think he fits in 4-1-2-1-2.

Zanetti

Camoranesi-------------Nedved

Lampard​

With Nedved and Camoranesi share more in defending and Lampard changes positions with Nedved according to the flow of the game. But in this case, at least either the right or the left back should be offensively competent.

I don't think he will fit, I mean Lamp can play that role but Im not sure it'll work for him here in serie A. U can't play the kick and rush game here.

And so I'd guess he needs to be more technical to play that role in serie A, like what Kaka did in 2005/2006 season, even that didn't work perfectly well for Kaka who is levels better than Lamp.

Its just my opinion, of course I could be wrong.

 

[HelterSkelter]

I think he will fit in the diamond midfield.Lippi used that to good effect when he was incharge,and i think Lampard can play the role that Nedved played for us back in the day.

That is the kind of formation I thought. Only problem is that, IMO, Zanetti isnt probably good enough to assume the defensive responsibility by himself. But I do think players like Makoun is more than capable of being that man sitting just in front of defence and let things flow.

Makoun; Camo, Mavuba; Nedved is another possibility IMO.


@Vonam:

I agree Gerard is superior to Lamps in every depart. A truly great midfielder IMO. But only in Tuttosport we would get him.


I am convinced sportingwise, Lampard is going to have a hard time adjusting in Serie A. Lampard's game is all about being box to box, and getting those goals. I just can't see Italian managers giving him that freedom to roam about. But I guess, take away sporting matters, Lampard signing gives a legitimacy to our time, and the air of desire and purpose within the squad. I don't think it is end of the world, finacially or sporting wise, if we sign Lampard. But I feel there are younger better prospects around.
