Frank Lampard's reputation is on the line

I don't think Frank Lampard is as bad as many people think. He did have a very poor World Cup, but so did almost every England player. When he plays for Chelsea, he has other world class players (don't you just hate it?) to support and cover for him, so the team is less reliant on him. But for England, there is nowhere to hide for Lampard. He needs to have a good game against Croatia, otherwise I think it's time for McClaren to drop him.
