I've never lost any respect for Lampard, even if he is playing for City. We should never forget the service he gave when we won so much silverware. He was an integral part of everything, therefore he is a part of our history. Anyone who decides to hate on him, should take a look at themselves. It's those people who go down to the level of Arsenal fans, who have since decided to hate on some of their world class players who have left them, most noticeably Fabregas. Cesc never failed to compliment his former club for making him the player he is today, following our 2-0 win over them earlier this season, and it was Arsene Wenger's decision not to re-sign him before we stepped in, yet they hate him because he belongs to us.. just shows you the level Arsenal fans are at. So Lampard scored against us at the Etihad. That doesn't change anything. To me, he is still a Chelsea legend, but on that day, he was contracted at City to try and beat us. He was there to do his job, just like any other player who is contracted to the club. I would love it if Lampard came back to us to take on a coaching role. He would be an outstanding cult figure to the younger generation and they will all look up to him, and learn from him.
