It's hardly been hard for Lampard to score loads given that he use to have Makalele and Essien behind him, or more recently Mikel and Ramires.
Ramsey has had 7 shots on target in all competitions this season. scored 6 goals.
He's overshadowing Özil Gummidge at the moment.
He didn't play particularly well today but his highlight of the match was a bloody marvellous ball that put Walcott in on goal in the first few minutes. Should've got a penalty for that. I'm enjoying his goalscoring run while it lasts - same with Giroud. Still not sure he's a good finisher but he's willing to play the percentages and his energy means he's much more likely to be on the end of things. His all-round game is more encouraging. First name on the teamsheet these days.
Man. One minute he's the worse player in the squad who was championship quality at best, now he's mentioned in the same breath as lampard and Gerrard.
Many on here wanted him gone, but are now singing his praises.
Big props for those on here that supported him through the bad times totally convinced he'd come good.
I can't claim to be one of them - but at the same time didn't consign him to bin either.
Let's hope this good form cements his belief in his ability to become a top quality player for us for years to come:-)
I was just going to say myself, he has some way to go before he achieves what Lampard has.
Whether by hook or crook Lampard has scored 20 goals in the league a hand full of times which is not easy. If it was, lots of midfielder's would have done it, but few actually have. I am far from Lampard's biggest fan either.
I never really had him down as a regular midfield goal scorer so it feels a real treat that everything he hits is going in. In his favour, midfielder's don't often have a run of games with several goals as merely a purple patch and then fail to score ever again. It certainly is not fluke but then again neither is Lampard's 200 odd goals for those blue losers. Strikers have small goal scoring runs that halt, never or seldom to be seen again, but it rarely happens with central midfielders.
