http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Frank-Lampard-c14097 thinks that the Three Lions need to be careful of Shevchenko, since the striker can cause a lot of damage on his day.
Shevchenko has already gone on to show just what he can do, as he single handily went on to help the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Zlatan-Ibrahimovic-c38029.
Roy Hodgson is going to have http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wayne-Rooney-c36736 at his disposal in the game, but even though the striker is an option, the team is still going to have to work defensively, to keep the Ukrainian goal machine at bay.
Lampard has worked with the striker back when he was a Chelsea player and despite him not doing too well at the club, the England midfielder is well aware of the threat that he possesses.
When talking about the game against Ukraine and Shevchenko, Lampard is quoted to have said: “Sheva showed with those two goals we can’t afford to write him off as too old and too slow.”
“Great goalscorers like him always know when to make their move so they can be in the right place at the right time.”
“I just know he’d love to score against England and he’ll be desperate to score against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/John-Terry-c18895. They are mates but Sheva will ignore that and go all guns blazing to get the better of JT.”
“Just as I’m sure JT will be desperate to keep him out at all costs. They’ll both be keen to get one over on each other and they’ll both relish the challenge.”
“That’s what makes them the top players they are.”
Lampard missed out on the tournament due to an injury that he picked up just days before the team travelled to participate in the Euro 2012.
Nonetheless, his advice about the game against Sweden is more than likely going to be taken into consideration by his team mates and the England manager, as they don’t want to risk taking any chances in a game, which could ensure their progress to the knock
out stages.
