Liquidator 5,176 Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Whatever happens come the end of the season, I will always remember Frank Lampard as the greatest player to have ever put on a Chelsea shirt. It has been an absolute pleasure to watch Frank play week in week out for us, with true pride and grace. It is chilling to watch that video of Harry Redknapp telling a muggy West Ham fan how Lampard will go right to the absolute top when he was a teenager. He has always led by example as a role model and deserves every last bit of praise he gets. He has provided us with some of our greatest moments as fans and I cannot thank him enough. He will be one of the players the grandchildren always ask about and I'll be able to tell them what an incredible man and footballer he was and that i have had the privilege of seeing him play.Thankyou so much Frank.

Jype 6,398 Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 You don't understand how good his 1st goal was. It was of the highest quality, one of the greatest weaker foot finishes I've seen in a long time, in a time where we needed a goal desperately. What a finish. So delighted for this man, living legend.Luiz against Basel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Such a modest, classy man. He is really the guy who should receive knighthood by her majesty, but probably never will cos the Queen is Arsenal supporter. http://www1.skysports.com/football/gallery/12739/8706623/franks-finest-goalshere a nice gallery of some of his most important goals. I remember all of them too well.Also amazing feat by Cech to carry a big man like Frank on his shoulders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special Juan 28,141 Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Living legend, nothing more and nothing else. This guy delivered at Bolton many years ago, numerous league games, numerous CL ties and a final and not only that but FA Cup finals.Frank if I could meet you I would beg you to stay, my words would do no good because Chelsea make their own choice, but from me and nearly every CFC fan....Congratulations and thank you for everything you have done for this, and my football club....I love you and we love you.Respect.

Bosnian Blue 2,471 Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Such a modest, classy man. He is really the guy who should receive knighthood by her majesty, but probably never will cos the Queen is Arsenal supporter. Absolutely.Our fans in England should really talk about this more often and try to put pressure on the media somehow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manpe 10,861 Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Are there any other clubs who have a midfielder as their all time top scorer? I would really like to know, because I can't think of any.Also, Lamps isn't just an attacking midfielder, he isn't the kind whose only duty is to attack. It's really easy to forget that because of the insane amount of goals he scores. But we must remember he isn't only about goals, he used to play defensive midfield and this season he plays deeper too. In the games where we needed to defend, he was immense. He's always been a tireless workhorse, trying to perfect everything there is to perfect as a footballer. As a result he became the complete player we now see.He does it all - defending, tackling, scoring, poaching, assisting, passing, corners, penalties, free kicks, right foot, left foot, mid range, long range shooting.We talk about the Peles and Maradonas and Zidanes and Ronaldos and Messis of the world, but they have/had only one job to do, they are/were not even remotely close to being complete players. Therefore I refrain myself from automatically naming an attacker as the best, because for me, the best are those who are most complete. Lampsy fits the criteria.I don't think we really understand how good he was during his prime, it was unprecedented. He is a unique player throughout the world. Every other player you can compare to somebody, but you can't do that with Lampard. The closest you can come with comparisons are still too far. He really should have won the Ballon d'Or at least once, but the wankfest over flashy attackers robbed him continuously.He is a brilliant player, a brilliant person. Thank you, Frank.

I can't honestly understand why Chelsea bought him. What has Lampard actually achieved in the Premiership? On the other hand Poyet is a bargain. Ross Peacock, EnglandRavanelli will prove all his doubters wrong with around 20 goals while overrated Lampard will struggle!
