As some of you know, the English midfielder Frank Lampard announced his retirement today and as a Chelsea fan I would like to say a few words about this great player.
Frank Lampard joined Chelsea in June 2001 after a move worth £11 million from rivals West Ham!
Since then, he made 649 appearances and scored 211goals, making him the leading all-time scorer of Chelsea. He was a very creative playmaker with a tendency to score. He managed to win the FA Premier league three times, FA Cup 4 times and League cup twice. But his biggest achievementswere the Champions league triumph on the 19th of May 2012 and the Europa league triumph on the 15th of May 2013.
On individual level, he was awarded UEFA Club Midfielder of the Year in 2008 and twice Premier League Player of the Season in 2005 and 2006.
For his national team, he made 106 appearances, scoring 29 goals.
During the summer of 2014, Chelsea did not propose a new contract to Frank Lampard and on the 24th of June 2014 he joined as a free agent MLS side New York City FC. Unfortunately, during the 2014-2015 season he played
for Manchester city. At first, it was considered to be a loan deal but later it was announced that Frank had signed a non-binding commitment to join NYFC and that he would play for ManCity until the end of 2014-2015 season. He joined NYFC next season until his retirement today.
Personally, I think that he was one of the best English players ever played this game and alongside with Petr Cech, John Terry and Didgier Drogba one of the true legends of this club!!!
