Rio Ferdinand

[joeluke]

Past it and has been for a while, Demba Ba ran him ragged last night

Got away with it when he had Vidic alongside him but now the Serbian is out long term injured Ferdinand is struggling

It's not usually like Fergie to keep players who are past their sell by date

[Space-Cadet]

And ?

I know what youmean joeluke - and what about the national team ?
Both him and JT are past their best...

[Space-Cadet]

So, you have a question?

[joeluke]

Yeah, time to ship out some of the England old guard who are past their best/injury prone......Ferdinand, Terry, Gerrard, Lampard

[bigbadmarty]

Not forgetting the manager !

[Space-Cadet]

Doh!

Why could I not gather that from your OP ?

[joeluke]

'So, you have a question?'


Yeah, isn't your village missing you?

[Space-Cadet]

poor....you needed two replies , Joe.


I could have posted this er ..Question? ...2 years ago...

have you just noticed?

Spot on Joe. I think the national team are going to continue to struggle while the English league is overrun with overseas players.
As Keegan said in 2000 in 10-15 years time the only valid selections will have to come from the lower leagues, although some clubs are trying to address the balance.

ps I got your drift ;0)
