Lampard VS Gerrard

[Sheva. 5,373]

No bias or anything*, i don't think Gerrard is great. Lampard in his prime was one fucking awesome player, who was nominated for the World player of the year award and only finished behind the great Ronaldinho.

* ok, maybe a little

In a team filled with super stars lamps has always stood out. Class player and one of the biggest legends of this club. Gerard is a super player but he's just not Frank

Technically as a footballer, Gerrard is better. He's a better passer, has a better long range shot, is a better tackler and is quicker. Lampard is smarter, has the better football brain. He see's opportunities to sneak in a get crucial goals very often, much more often than Gerrard.

Gerrard is a creative midfielder.

Lampard is a goalscoring midfielder.

The best 2 at what they do, at least in the premiership over the last decade.

Completely disagree. Lampards passing, especially when he was younger was sublime. Im sure at one point he had over 80% pass success ratio, consistently.

Frank!

[TomCFC 356]

This forum will clearly be bias, but looking objectively, Frank by quite some distance. At least ten goals scored in each season for the last nine years, guiding us to three PL titles and numerous cups. Gerrard is/was a terrific player, but he never quite reached that level. All he's got that Frank hasn't is a Champions League winners' medal.

look at most goals lampard is the only midfield player in there and thats says it all pretty much a goal scoring record that puts strikers to shame.... Lampard any day of the week, better distribution of the ball, better box to box player and all round game, gerrard scraps the 30 yard screamers just because we all know about lampard, lampard goal at the nu camp, from the by line pure class.......

Lampard's passing is (was) a joy to watch. I literally liked to watch him play mainly for his passing, which was slick and he made it look so easy and effortless (still does, but he doesn't attempt ambitious passes that often anymore). Oh, and his long range shooting used to be legendary.. a shame he's lost this attribute now. Gerrard's long range shooting is also legendary.

Someone summed it up perfectly,

Gerrard is the overall better player, But Lampard was better than Gerrard when both were at their prime.

2005 Lampard was the best midfielder in the world.

[Beirut_Blues 306]

I think u can't compare them as they play different roles in the team.... Gerrard is all over the midfield and that's his advantage. Lamps' role is clearly different (don't ask me to explain how it just is).

[LDN Blue 7,903]

Dear god. You're not really proving this with titles & such?!

If you're going to compare them, do it on individual merits. Imo, Gerrard's a better all-round player and I'd probably put him in most my fantasy squads over Lampard. Still love Lampard though.

Oh dear. Not this again.

[bluephoenix 1,126]

Lampard after that Gerrard

[DONI. 1,291]

Lampard..!

[Badboy 1,526]

Gerrard is such a driving force, he's the absolute heart beat of his club. Gerrard played in a much weaker Liverpool side and when a quality striker called Torres arrived he actually out scored and out assisted Lampard.

It wasn't only because of Torres signing, but more to the fact he played as a Second Striker.

The best team Gerrard has been on was the 08/09 team, and you could argue that Xabi Alonso was their best midfielder.

[Mr. Ziggles 110]

Lamps would 'do Gerrard in' in his sleep.

[jmarlow 458]

Lampard is clearly better, more goals and assists, Lampard has played with world class players in a better team and has still been the main guy in the team, Gerrard has played with many average players in mediocre Liverpools teams, so its easy for him to stand out, Lamps has only ever played with top quality players and has always stood out. Lampard has scored more goals from midfield than some of the PL greatest strikers such as Les Ferdinand, Michael Owen, Teddy Sheringham, Dwight Yorke, JFH ect he has got more assist then the likes of Gerrard, Scholes, Fabregas, Bergkamp, Henry ect Lampard is just another level to Gerrard.
