		<description>you could say essien and lass diarra are the closest thing to box to box these days, both have countless amounts of stamina and can attack and defend pretty well, they are primarily a defensive support player though. Its no coincidence that both have played as RB due to this. essien especially did surprisingly well as a RB and i think if he had been put into that position earlier in his career it would have stuck.</description>

		<description>Not the right place for this, I know, but had to add to the love-in - just the site I&#039;ve been searching for! Proper football. 

Surely the Gerrard thing&#039;s been known for some time now, at least as far back as 2005? 
Though I remember that this was used more in jest and to highlight what some saw as his personal strengths and limitations rather than those of his role. With runners now more common up front in a 433 or equivalent, the midfield needs to show composure and control the space. Hence late runs now come more from full backs or midfielders who know when to stick or twist. In the UK, I&#039;d put this down to the continental masterclass handed to all UK teams on their return to Europe in the 1990s and into this decade.</description>

		<description>Precisely why no one uses Steven Gerrard as a central midfielder anymore. I always laugh when I see him in midfield in the FIFPro World XIs. 
FIFPro, of course, always gets it wrong. In successive years, they picked three-man midfields, comprising, respectively, Pirlo-Kaka-Zidane and Ronaldo-Kaka-Gerrard.
Gerrard has been picked in the midfields of the purported &#039;official&#039; World XI for the last three years. Considering that FIFPro is made up of professional footballers, you wonder how aware the majority are of the game they play. 
Oh, and I only discovered this site today, and love it to bits already.</description>
