Frank Lampard delighted with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fabio-c13152 Capello’s tactics after England's win over Wales
England and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wales-c3041, on Saturday, March 26. The player went on to state that the changes made by the manager were downright
clever and were just what the team needed to get that extra something out of the team.
England went on to win the game by two goals to nil and the goals on the night were scored by http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Darren-Bent-c10358 and, not surprisingly, Lampard himself. The victory also saw England head their group and make a very convincing approach to the Euro 2012.
Capello flipped things up in the game and opted to use a 4-3-3 formation. He also introduced Scott Parker and Jack Wilshere to his midfield, along with Lampard, and had http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ashley-Young-c6813 upfront.
The victory for the Englishmen came during a rough patch for Capello, as he was being given the heat for re-instating http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/John-Terry-c18895 as the captain of the England squad. However, the manager is now facing more praises than complaints from the media.
When talking about the manager and the changes that were made to the side, Lampard is reported to have said, "Scotty did the stuff he's been doing brilliantly for West Ham all season, sitting in front of the back four. Jack's shown what he can do with Arsenal
and England now and it was nice to play with an extra body in there, to get a bit more possession with a bit of insurance behind you."
"The way we played, with the front three breaking, I think it worked very well. It's the manager's prerogative to use different systems at different times and I think he did it today cleverly, and that gave us the dominance in midfield." added the midfielder.
It was more than interesting to watch the tactical changes that Capello made to the squad. Not only did the manager decide to use the 4-3-3, which has been hailed to be the future of footballing formations, but he also decided to use younger players, as
well as players who were hungry to achieve something with the national team. i.e; Scott Parker, Ashley Young and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Jack-Wilshere-c17463.
The usage of those three players really proved to be the decisive factor for the manager, who now seems to have a well endowed team, who look to be on their way to playing in the Euro 2012, after having one nightmare of a world cup.
