I can't see the point of a holding player, we have a strong enough defence and our problem is creating. Lampard and Gerrard agaisnt the better teams should both be able to create and hold and communicate.

Lampard was our top goalscorer in qualifying and got into good positins the other night although was guity of some unusual misses for him.

I don't think the 4 in the middle and the balance is the problem, it is the long ball rubbish they are playing, Gerrard Lampard and Beckham are all guilty of getting to the half way line and hitting long dioganal balls up to Crouch.

Argentina don't do that, they play a nice quick short passing game, we seem to want a extra touch all the time.

That said we played against 2 sides like in qualifying for the world cup who put 11 players behind the ball, i am condident against Sweden and in the knockout stages when we are playing sides who will try to go at us the game will be more open and suit our game.

For me the midfield is fine the way it is, just the tactics needs changing. We do have a solid midfield and defence and i can't see many goals being scrored against us. Gerrard although is a wonderfull player going forward is also solid in the middle. Not many midfielders are going to runs past him.
