PLease don't ever use the word defend together with gerrard. he can't defend for nuts, he can't even make a decent tackle, the most is on par with pirlo, no more. he can run around and create problems for opponents but seriously i am NEVER impressed by Gerrard.
Lampard is not bad but again ain't impressed by him enough to pay the big money.
these 2 are "jack of all trade but master of none". i would take Diarra over them anyday. Diarra cover the midfield like gatusso and can make very solid tackles. I am rather impressed by Diarra and hope that he can come here. we don't need Sneijder to replace rui costa cos pirlo can play in that place when needed and other players like vogel or ambro take his place in MF. i also think that its amazing crazy to get a young player to sit on the bench, they need to play regularly to improve.
