Reading striker Dave Kitson has accused Frank Lampard of being a 'coward' for criticising England's World Cup set-up in his autobiography.

In the newspaper serialisation of 'Totally Frank', the midfielder revealed he was unhappy with England's training schedule in Germany and also claimed Tottenham frontman Jermain Defoe should have been in the squad to give Sven-Goran Eriksson "more options".
He told The People: "Why say things after the event when you were part of the problem and when you are just as culpable as the manager? It is disgusting.
"Does Frank want to tell his story or does he want to make money? It is cowardly - he was not brave enough to stand up at the time and admit we were going wrong."
