When Frank Lampard claimed young players have it too easy and ought to have to do menial chores and be shouted at by senior pros he was referring to the next generation.[LNB]But how many of his England team-mates came through the hard way?[LNB] Too much, too young: Frank Lampard's dig could have easily been directed at the likes of Aaron Lennon (L), Wayne Rooney (centre) and Stewart Downing (R)[LNB]   More from Hatchet Man... HATCHET MAN: Flirting Fabregas is happy to flaunt his charmed life in an ugly way31/03/09 HATCHET MAN: Business as usual? Arsenal must decide whether they want to be the new Villa or Chelsea31/03/09 HATCHET MAN: Giving Kinnear an back seat role at Newcastle is as ludicrous as giving Hughton a front seat one in the first place30/03/09 HATCHET MAN: So who is asking Hiddink to stay at Chelsea if Kenyon isn't? 30/03/09 HATCHET MAN: It can only be in Wayne's world where, snarling, fury and abuse is being perfectly 'in control'30/03/09 HATCHET MAN: Barry's Anfield switch will end up with him playing full back (when he's not dropped) and frozen out of the England squad - what a great career move30/03/09 HATCHET MAN: FA hit new low with Middlesbrough's paltry fine27/03/09 HATCHET MAN: Time to end predictable player of the year voting and look at things objectively27/03/09 VIEW FULL ARCHIVE Lampard's dig could just as easily have been aimed at Wayne Rooney,who has a petulantly furious reaction to the slightest sign of thingsnot going his way, the inconsistent Aaron Lennon or Stewart 'I'm toogood for Middlesbrough' Downing.[LNB]All three could be said to have had too much, too young and despite their successes, it shows.[LNB] [LNB]
