Saint_clark Posted 6 September, 2013 Share Posted 6 September, 2013 If Lambert had instead scored the 2 and then not got MOTM, would you be equally annoyed? FWIW I think Townsend will give it to RL anyway. I knew that question was coming and the answer is honestly no, if another player had put in the performance Lambert had whilst Lambert had done little all game except scored two, I'd accept that they deserved it. Put it this way, Lambert scored his own goal and created both of Welbecks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkish Posted 6 September, 2013 Share Posted 6 September, 2013 Let's just hope he does better against James Collins this time around. I remember Gary Docherty not giving Lambert a look in in L1, it happens sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dubai_phil Posted 6 September, 2013 Share Posted 6 September, 2013 His lack of stamina at this level and failures to last 90 minutes are the reason why he won't get picked again. Yeah, nothing to do with the fact that we are cruising at 4-0 up and Rickie is THE only guaranteed fit striker in the squad to start on Tuesday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offix Posted 6 September, 2013 Share Posted 6 September, 2013 I hope Pinnochio was watching: make sure Ricky gets half decent service and he will score for you and provide great assists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNSUN Posted 6 September, 2013 Share Posted 6 September, 2013 Already done more in his England career that MLT, arguably Southampton's greatest ever footballer. On a side note (which I'll whisper), I think Lambert will probably, eventually, have a poor game in an England shirt. If this happens, I just hope he isn't overlooked for the rest of his career, instead of, say Rooney having a poor game and getting picked again the next time.

Put it this way, Lambert scored his own goal and created both of Welbecks. A fair answer. Like I said earlier I think RL will get the nod (unless Welbz gets another one late on) but I think I'd also say fair play if Welbeck does get it too. Welbeck didn't get an assist but he was instrumental in the first goal. Credit where its due. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minty Posted 6 September, 2013 Share Posted 6 September, 2013 Superb work by Rickie - Welbeck and he linked up well and as much as I thought Welbeck's play everywhere else on the pitch was pretty poor, you can't deny that he finished his chances well. But anyway, back to SRL... superb all round game, which showed exactly what we all knew about him - that his all round game is what makes him such a complete player, not just his goals. I said it years back, and I'll dig out where, just as was highlighted in the commentary tonight - he is like a modern Teddy Sheringham, and has plenty to offer England. He will only get better as he gets more settled into the line-up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
