John Terry names Frank Lampard as the best midfielder he’s played with at Chelsea
Frank Lampard arrived at Chelsea right as Terry was breaking into the first team. The two would form the spine of the Chelsea side that dominated English football in the late 2000s.
Terry didn’t have to think much when asked who the best he played with was. He went straight for his fellow Englishman.
He said, bluntly: “I think Frank Lampard is the best Chelsea player of all time.”
Some may lean towards the man himself for that label, but you can’t blame anyone for picking Lampard. He could do it all on the football pitch and would be even more lethal in today’s game.
