#1 Frank Lampard (177 goals)

Chelsea v Reading - Premier League
Typical Lampard hit!

A loyal Chelsea servant, the dynamic attacking midfielder always made those trademark runs into the box and made a career out of finding himself at the end of crosses.

He is still the all-time leading goal-scorer of the London side. Staggering if you consider the players who've played for the club, like Didier Drogba, for instance.

Although almost all of his strikes came for the Blues, his tally was jump-started as a youngster in West Ham and then it rounded off, ironically, for Chelsea's rivals Manchester City which included a goal against the Blues as well.

Miles ahead of his nearest competition- Steven Gerrard (what competition that!), Lampard is comfortably in first place on this list with a scarcely believable 177 strikes. Fifty-seven more than Steven Gerrard!

Wow! Take the first spot already Frankie!
