QUOTE (kurtsimonw @ Apr 19 2007, 06:53 PM) I agree with Theo, I can't see him ever being great, but he's at the right club to develop. Arsenal do a great job with youngsters. Villa have a few young players that could eventually break into the first team. Ashley Young, 21 (ST) Gabriel Agbonlahor, 20 (ST) Luke Moore, 21 (ST) Gary Cahill, 21 (DF) Liam Ridgewell, 22 (DF) They've all been England-U21 regulars in recent years and have shows alot of promise in our first team over the last 2 seasons. Craig Gardner, 20 (MF) Has also done a great job when he's been given the chance this season. Yeah I've liked some that you've mentioned but apart from Young when you compare them to the likes of Lampard and Owen at their age they are no where near their standard. I'm not saying we are going to be completely useless but at the same time I can't see us being a nation in the top 10.

Nobody can see the next Lampard or Owen, and they're going to be 30 sooner than later. Our 'Golden Generation' is getting older, and like Portugal and Spain, we have no trophies to show for it. But at least they still have great young talent. When you compare the likes of Cristiano Ronalo and Fernando Torres to ewhat we have, it's no competition.

QUOTE (Porty @ Apr 23 2007, 06:23 PM) Ricardo is a poor/bad keeper. But an amazing penalty-killer. Oh, and Scolari had a problem with Baia so he chose Ricardo to be the #1. Yep, he's very good at penalties, and has a voodoo over England, whether it be at club level or international. Scolari looks like a real idiot not playing Baia now. I mean no offense to Greece, but they won the game on a bad error from Ricardo, Take nothing away though, the Greeks have won it, we haven't.
