Frank Lampard is most Famous in Stories of Premier League

Frank Lampard has been one of the great stories of the Premier League campaign. The former England international was deemed surplus to requirements at Chelsea and this appeared to bring his career at the top level to an end.

Lampard agreed a move to New York City FC, but he was loaned back to Manchester City for a short-term spell. This was converted into a move until the end of the campaign after Lampard impressed immensely with his cameo appearances off the bench. He has been a major factor in City remaining in the title race.

After having played with some of the best players in the world, Lampard has often praised Eden Hazard. The Belgian international is one important players at Chelsea, but the 37-year-old reckons that City have their own talisman in the form of David Silva. The Spaniard has been in fine goal scoring form this campaign. Despite missing large chunks due to injury, he has already scored 10 goals. This is the first time he has entered into double figures for the campaign since joining City several years ago. However, Silva’s main contribution has come through assists and Lampard reckons that the technical ability of the 30-year-old is unmatched.

“I’d put him right in the top bracket of the best players I’ve played with in my career. I’ve been fortunate enough to play alongside players like Gianfranco Zola, Arjen Robben and Eden Hazard among others and he’s completely up there with the best.From the moment I arrived and started training with him in pre-season I could better appreciate his weight of pass, movement, and his touch and he could play in any team in the world. It’s been a pleasure to play and train alongside him or even just to watch him,” said Lampard to the club’s official site.
