In this Guardian interview, Steven Gerrard makes a good point about the pillorying of his England midfield partnership with Frank Lampard: that the two of them have barely played together since Euro 2004. And in that tournament, a terrible backpass from Gerrard against France notwithstanding, they played pretty well together in an England team that was a bad refereeing decision away from eliminating the host nation in the quarters.
UPDATE: All that is moot for the time being, as Lampard withdraws from the Uruk-hai match with a tight hamstring. Carrick will take his place, allowing Gerrard to push further forward in the center.
