Gerrard did ok, but nowhere near his best. The service to him wasn't that great either (Beckham's 'pass' at the end is a fine example).
But, on form, he's one of the best midfielders in the world.
So no, England don't have at least one midfielder better.

Re: Rooney
Gerrard is probably the only midfielder in the premiership who I would like to see come to Arsenal. I dont think there is anybody other than Vieira who is in the same league as him. Hes had an ok tournament so far, but give him time and I think he'll improve.
Beckham is my main worry though. 3 games hes had now, and 3 games he has been awful. Apparently he is 'tired'
Owen also hasnt looked like scoring at all. He had his one chance, a chance than an on form Owen would have stuck away, and has anybody else noticed that he doesnt go at defenders anymore?

Re: Rooney
He never really 'went' at defenders. It was more a 'knock the ball past them then sprint to it'

Re: Rooney
it did to go from 333 to 335 and conveniently skim by post 334.
ON the other hand, credit for getting both posts different and inside the same minute.
on another final note, the first one might of been a reply to the post before jonny's and the latter a reply to jonny's.

I didnt think he had a great game at all, but The Times gave him 9/10 and man of the match.
BBC gave Rooney 10/10!

Re: Rooney
The funny thing about the whole MrL makes shit posts concept is that's evolved to the stage of a meta-concept where it's a given a priori and requires no proof despite the fact the very essence of posting would indicate that there would almost certainly be a change over any given time period.
