We have improved imo about 20 % with Stevie on the right and have so much more attacking threat with the way he interchanges with Harry Kewell.
Sissoko has been a good find but his passing has been erratic and although it will improve i would be just as happy if we signed another centre mid as i would with a right midfielder coming in.
I think at this time Steven Gerrard is the best midfielder in the world on current form, for what he offers the team he is in a different league to the massively over-rated Lampard.
Ace, do us a favour mate, don't mention Gerrard and Lamplard in the same scentance.
To be fair to Lampard, he's a really good player. Good alround with a truely world class shot on him. However there are players in the league on the same level in terms of ability and what they can give, Parker, Barton, Gilberto Silva, etc etc.
I watched a bit of Sunderland Chelsea on Sunday and if i am honest Lampard must have had about 4 shots in the time i was watching it (about 10-15 minutes).
He is the most selfish greedy player i have seen, there was one shot from about 35-40 yards out when there was duff peeling off to the left, robben to the right and with Crespo making a clever run in behind the centre halves.
It p@ssed me right off and i would hate to play in the same team as him.
