#8 Frank Lampard
The guy has had a great career. I must say we looked at him when he was at West Ham as a young player and I maybe regret not having done it. Where else could I get 200 goals? - Sir Alex Ferguson
Well, when a great footballing mind like Sir Alex Ferguson expresses his regret over not signing you, you know that you are pretty much a demi-god in your own right.
Frank Lampard was, simply put, one of the most majestic midfielders ever to grace the Premier League.
The Englishman was well-known for his deft touch and for making the beautiful game appear easier than it actually is. He was a versatile midfielder who functioned both as an attacking and even a defensive midfielder at times, also playing as a support striker whenever needed.
His keen eye for goal is one of the reasons why he is remembered by all. Being a midfielder, Frank Lampard is the all-time top scorer of Chelsea FC with 211 goals in 648 games. He made 106 appearances for England and netted 26 times.
A rare breed of a midfielder, isn't he?
