Lampard is a remarkable player and he well go down as one of the best players to ever grace the beautiful game....
Totally agree. One of the best alongside iniesta, xavi, vieira, scholes and gerrard
and pirlo, and keane
logic and lampard... you and i are alike my friend
Krampus K Well what can I say we know whats Good around here 😆😅
i said the same thing lol
Yeah you dont need to convince Chelsea fans how great Lamps was but every other fan and journalist in England needs a fucking schooling. The fact that they all say Gerrard was better without even considering the possibility pisses me off so much. Lamps was a fucking machine and he did it year after year for a decade, only Ronaldo and Messi have that kinda consistency.
I'm pretty sure most fans and journalists think that Frankie >= Stevie =< Scholesy. If anything, Gerrard was the one considered the worst from the English midfield golden trio.
***** Lampard had a lot less flair than the other two, despite the incredible numbers. He also played with batches and batches of better players at CFC. Like a conveyor belt of solid DMs and CMs, hence the numbers. Scholes suffered when Keane left and it wasn't the same with him and Carrick in midfield. Not that they did too badly.
It's also easy to forget Gerrard had sub-par team mates apart from a few seasons with Alonso, Mascherano, Torres etc. Give Gerrard the team mates Lampard had for 15+ seasons, then compare the two. It nearly happened under Mourinho - Makelelé + Gerrard + Lampard would have been the end of football.
***** It's easier to shine in an inferior team no doubt. That's not what i'm saying (Gerrard would stand out anywhere btw).
Lampard had an easier time scoring goals in a Chelsea team with MUCH better defensive cover then what Gerrard got.
Put Lampard in an average team, they'll have less possession, create less chances and he'll score fewer goals.
I don't hate Lampard, but these are the facts. Look how many goals Fabregas scored when he joined Barcelona...
***** I said Liverpool were inferior not 'shite'. I'll say it again, Liverpool are inferior to Chelsea. They are not as good as Chelsea. Chelsea > Liverpool. Hope that clears it up.
'Mate it's easier to shine in a shite team' meaning Gerrard and Liverpool. That's what you said isn't it? If anyone is throwing shite about it's you.
Also, regarding shite. You said if you have strong midfielders behind Lampard, even in a shite team, he is still class? How can a team be shite with strong midfielders + Lampard?
Look I don't mind the guy. He did great things at Chelsea, he's a fantastic footballer who scored lots of goals. He is intelligent, was good off the ball and on. But Gerrard would be better in every position. Even in goal or at CB. SlippyG was a more complete footballer - and that's not an opinion.
His stats are higher because Lamps played the majority of his career with better managers and players. Don't tell me it was more difficult for Lampard because he had better players around him.
Peter E Why did Mourihno want Gerrard so badly if Lampard was better? Doesn't really make sense. People today rifle off stats and forget that you can actually watch players and when you watch Gerrard you can see he was clearly the better player. Look at any neutral observation about them from their peers and you'll see time again the Gerrard is referenced as the best X has played against. It's like when people go on about Ronaldo and Messi and start quoting Ronaldos stats to demonstrate why he's better; it works up until you watch them both play and then you understand Messi is the best.
It's criminal that he didn't win anything with England. A testament to how bad the national team managers have been.
Terry, Ferdinand, Ashley Cole, Lampard, Gerrard, Scholes, Beckham, Rooney, Joe Cole, what a waste of golden generation...
The answer is David James.
that team was awesome Rio,Terry,Cola, Lampard,Gerrard,Scholes,Beckham,Rooney,Owen shame they didnt win Euro or World cup
yeah but the manager of this "golden generation" team was steve mcclaren. couldn't even qualify in euro 2008
should have played 4-3-3 or 4-1-2-1-2 diamond
no need for the question mark in the end.THE FINEST
polo kllapi Pogba>>>>>>>Lampard
dis nic
bolu hahahahhahahahah
bolu, maybe in the future, but right now? no, i'd take lampard at his peak over pogba and i'm a united fan, i definitly think that pogba has the potential to be better than lampard, but he isn't now
polo kllapi I was joking 😂😂😂
If England had done better internationally then players like Lampard and Scholes would be thought of as the best midfielders ever
they are still thought of as two of the greatest midfielders ever. Zidane idolised scholes.
But England hasn't done better so?
Lampard is one of the best players I have ever seen. I grew up watching him scoring goals for fun under Mourinho when I was a kid, and he never stopped doing his magic until the day he left Chelsea - such memories (and I am not even a Chelsea fan).
I guess they had the greatest number of "world class" midfielders at one point but not only has England (including EPL) been deploying outdated tactics for ages, but their midfielders didn't complement each other either.
If you look at Italy's World Cup winning squad, their central mids were Pirlo and Gattuso: one playmaker (better than Gerrard and Lampard, about equal to Scholes) and one aggressive destroyer (better than any of the 3).
England doesn't have team spirit.
best football channel on youtube hands down. top quality
rb26dett, you're too kind.
Absolutely. You are clearly talented umaxit. Can you do a tactics explaination on why england failed to accomodate lampard/scholes/gerard in the same starting xi? Was there a way which was overlooked? Thanks and 3 cheers/
uMAXit Football no sir he isn't just kind, he's completely right
That's cute and all but lets share this channel get it where it should be...... at the top just like my Chelsea :)
100%. Considering how big football is, the average tactical knowledge of us fans is terrible. umaxit filled in a big gap in the market, theyll only keep growing.
Frank Lampard is a true Legend of Football
Frank Lampard - one of my all-time favorite English players alongside Paul Scholes, Steven Gerrard, and John Terry. He was not just able to control the midfield like a boss but also had one of the best goalscoring runs as a midfielder, at one point even scoring more than 20 goals for a whole season in the Premier League itself (not counting the UCL and domestic cups). A legend in every way.
Lampard and Terry are the two greatest icons of Chelsea. And i'll always miss Frankie.
His goal against Barca truly demonstrates how much he understood the physics of the game. That’s a total veteran move. He knew the ball better than almost anyone.
My favourite premier league midfielder ever
Mine too! Super Frank!
Greatest Premier League Midfielder of all time!
scholes and gerrard are as good as him. England had a midfield of Scholes, gerrard and lampard and never won anything...damn
Nope. Its Luka Modric
+AA Kadir Luka Modric is destroying it in La Liga, but in the Premier League, he was "just" very good. With just, I mean that Real Madrid wanted to sign him despite being like, 28, but just simply hadn't spent enough time in the PL to be considered "The best PL midfielder ever". He is tho, arguably, the best midfielder in the world as we speak.
By the way, the reason why the Stevie, Frankie and Scholesy combination didn't work, was because of the attacking mentality they had. The 3 were attacking midfielders with defensive qualities played central (they were versatile tho). They simply unbalanced the midfield which left the defense having to do ALL the defensive work, and unless you have a magical defense, it won't work since the opponents can just outnumber them. At the end, Steve and Frank basically didn't go well in the pitch.
PP Hyjynx - Gerrard and Scholes werent as clinical as Lampard in the PL. Check the stats...
Scholes
honestly frank lampard was one of the most underrated players of all time in my opinion he offere everything to a team and genuinely passionate and cared deeply when he played as an arsenal fan was truly envious of chelsea for having him for all those years, one of my favourite players
Please do:
Makelele role
Why centre backs are under appreciated
Total Football
Greatest sides ever series - Invincibles, Brazil, Holland etc etc
Formations series. pros and cons of 433, 4231 etc etc
The prime and fall of Serie A
Inside forwards vs wingers
invincibles are not the greatest side though , they were defeated by R10's barca which is not even the 4th best barcelona team of all time.
Can you please make a video on Philipp Lahm? Great video, by the way!
Yeah I'll love it if he does on Lahm, another great that just retired.
And Zanetti
dont be that guy Lyle
Lyle Davids He will be at the end of the season, might as well make one for him.
and Paul Scholes
Wow, as a Chelsea supporter, this is a excellent video and a remarkable tribute to Lampard's career. He truly was one of a kind. I'm grateful I had the privilege of watching him.
I think people do widely recognize Lampard as a great player, but I don't think many people realize how he really was one of the very most dominant players ever to grace the Premier League.
Great video. Lampard was one of those players that even if you didn't like him for whatever reason, he had to be respected on the pitch. His output, as you highlighted, was remarkable, especially his goals from midfield.
Before people go on pointing out the mistake in 'felxible', Please just stop and enjoy the video for what it shows and appreciate the efforts of UMaxit. I swear these guys should be sitting in place of Michael Owen and Phil Neville
. Great Video as always 👏👏👏
Thanks Raghav.
Raghav Sengupta Phill Neville isn't a bad pundit
1:36 That Fabregas assist stats is astonishingly, considering he spent 3 seasons not playing in the Premier League, played for shit Arsenal teams from 2006 onwards and barely played under Conte and Sarri.
I was thinking the same thing. Prime Fabregas was probably the greatest creative player Ive ever seen. He had the most keen eye for the finishing pass and always put it on the perfect spot for the goal scorer to take the optimal.
well during the season where Chelsea won the league with Conte, Fabregas was almost guaranteed to assist either Costa or Hazard to score.
Arsenal weren't shit u fanboy they reached UCL semifinal and would've gone to the final if barca didn't pay the refs
Cesc is a top tier borderline legend of the games
@@Qhsjahajw Still shit club
Strangely enough, really underrated player. As a Liverpool fan, I do put him above Gerrard.
In the controversial debate: Scholes - Lampard - Gerrard
Sean Robinson JR I can understand the Lampard and Gerrard comparison but Scholes was a completely different player. I'm not aiming this at you, just saying.
Well I put Scholes above them. As always, sorted by best from the left and worse to the right
@TT99 Football I don't personally agree with that. Maybe you could say that about Lampard at the end of his career at Chelsea but certainly not for the majority of it. Even at City he was playing a really advanced role.
I'm not trying to beat you down by the way. Good to have a discussion.
we are talking about players we won't be seeing likes of again for a while. But strangely enough, lampard sees glimpses of himself in parts of Barclay and pulisic. Let's see if he can get the magic out of them both. Interesting season
Lampard - Scholes - Gerrard
This is the most relaxing series ever. The drawings, the voice, the information, the calm music, and everything else just makes it so nice.
Glad you find them so therapeutic
Gruff deserves more subscribers your the mutts nuts 👍
Please what is the name of the song in the background?
Really pleased to see an insightful tribute to one the greatest midfielders of the modern era
as mancester city fan i have a lot of repsect for this honest and great midfielder and i think that he is the greaterst english player in this generation
I can't express enough how much I love the man... He made me love football and his mentality is seen today in his interviews as a manager . He is always challenging himself and the others around him to become better than their own selves yesterday. He is always about progress and thus he has always been a winner.
Would be interesting to see a video a video on the golden age of English midfielders (Scholes, Lamps, Gez)! Great Video as always!!
Tapiwa Nyakabau Beckham
Even the brief stint he had at Man City in his mid 30's he was still class. What a professional.
youre voice is perfect you should do documentries too (outside footy)
There are already lots of channels with this style that do other topics.
Any examples of these channels? would like to check them out
Yes great voice. I need it sometimes to help me sleep
Was always better than Gerrard & Scholes in my opinion. Had a stronger mentality than both.
when did you start following football?
I'm a big Lampard fan but there is no need for comparison's. just enjoy the video
Iqram Che Onn as long your dad did. Oh wait..
of course dude. but he is underated, couse gerrard and scholes have some many history and legend. so their legend called they are best, but we and the world know, lampard is the best
@Ikram Che Onn go watch history channel coz you ain't got other than that.Talking abt Lampard...just google it..you will get the stats who is best among three...period.
He probably sees himself in Mount, that's why he likes him so much, which is quite good for Mount and Chelsea to unleash his full potential...
Really awesome work. Can you make one about Scholes?
Could you do one on Giggs' career (how his style of play adapted under SAF), and one on the importance of Scholes and Gerrard for their respective clubs?
his stats alone really speak for themselves he was so impactful a player you could rely on and always turned up on the big occasion one of the best players of his generation and i really feel was a different breed of player
He sure was a must have on every fantasy PL team.
Lampard > Gerrard
I'm a big Lampard fan but there is no need for comparison's. just enjoy the video
AMIRUL FIKRI no way near gerrard
AHMED HASSAN I'm sorry about your brain damage
without a doubt. Gerrard isn't close to Lamps level.
lmao, the people who feel their opinion is correct and any one who disagrees has brain damage, just look at these players as greats and laugh at the west ham fan who thought Scott Canham was better
The reason Lampard and Gerrard come so close is because of the leadership they bring onto the pitch as well. Something not captured in stats but crucial nonetheless
Brilliant video. Only mistake is that Essien did not play for Chelsea in the 04/05 Season
That's not true. Essien was among the players Mourinho brought from France(Lyon) in 04/05 season. Get the facts right Bro
Chukwulotam Donatus no, he was bought in 2005 for the 05/06 season
Chukwulotam Donatus do you’re research mourinho signed Essien in the summer of 2005.
Great work. Thanks. Please do a video on "the Makelele role",the off the ball contribution of the role and the tactical discipline to do so. Some people can't understand the importance of that role and I believe this channel is the best medium to share this knowledge. Thanks again.
Seriously your videos are unreal!! why you don't have 18162637 million subscribers I'll never know!!
Specific number there Mike, fingers crossed it won't be long, the road to 18162637 begins...
I found this channel by mistake last week. Best mistake I've ever made, great job on these videos guys!!
Can you please do a video on Johan cruyff and Total Football
who come here after he announced as chelsea manager?
Im a West Ham fan and a big fan of Frank,thankfully I was not one of the boo boys that gave him so much stick when he was playing for the club,and watching this tactical profile has astounded me , I knew he was quality but breaking down his playing career ability is mind blowing,what a player,his record is there for everyone to see and admire.And as he is now in management surely the next England Manager.
Frank Lampard was really awesome. My favourite Premier League player then. Also, I just can't get enough of your videos. Keep it up man.
I miss seeing a Chelsea w/ Super Frank.
Well he’s back now
Im trying to think of his equivalent today, but cant seem to find anyone. Truly a uniqe player and one of the best ever.
We can compare these three magicians to Federer Nadal and Djokovic. They are that good
As a slow box2box midfielder, he compensated magnificently with his timing. The best timing to support both defensively and offensively I've ever seen.
An excellent video with top-notch analysis and production work! Great job. The only thing I'd say should be improved is the audio quality. Your voice is really similar in tone to the narrator's voice from the TH-cam channel The School of Life, but his vocal mixing is better. I think you need a bit more compression to catch the moments when the voice trails down a bit, especially at the end of sentences, and you could probably EQ it a bit better to include more high-end so it's more understandable.
Yours is the best football channel on this site, so you should have the best audio too. :)
most definitely the best channel on the tube. so much detail, accuracy and uniqueness. well done guys
Appreciate it man!
one of the best mildfielder in the world. inspiring other teammates. what a player..!
sadly, he's retired, hope the best for him and family..
Even as an Arsenal fan i miss him so much in the Prem! Could you make a video about Patrick Vieira, would be awesome! Best channel on youtube, already subscribed a while ago, cheers from Stockholm! 🇸🇪🇬🇧❤️
Do a "Pep Guardiola career explained" maybe? from his younger days to his current one...
no
Rx93NuGundam Pep's bald
then... maybe about the FIFA itself? how it formed at the beginning and so on... :3
Rx93NuGundam pep is bald
Do one on Paul Scholes would you?
Colin Hawkins say please, please
Hearing a lot of love for Scholesy
uMAXit Football gingers need more attention don't ya know, they're underrepresented in modern football
yea please paul scholes and steven gerrard i want to compare them to lampard because i dont know who is the best out of them
AMAZING channel this is what football is about looking at tactics and stats but also emotion i know your channel will grow and i will be here watching your videos thank you for posting
scholes>lampard>gerrard
It's criminal you don't have more subscribers. But it makes me happy to see that everytime I see a new video the subscriber count it's different and growing! Keep it up!
If you don't mind a request, a tactics explained of Luka Modric would be pretty cool.
I think it'd be great if you did a monthly poll of player requests for these type of specified videos. Every month you could dedicate a video to one player and encourage viewer engagement. Just an idea, love the videos!
Please do a video on Steven Gerrard.
He single handedly took Liverpool to bigger things in football.
While Lampard, Scholes, Giggs had a geeat set of players around him. Gerrard usually played with a bang averge team in multiple positons for various managers.
He was truly a great, himself.
Liverpool fans would love to see you make a video of him.
Ta!
Numbers don’t lies. The greatest english midfielder ever.
Great video,this channel deserves more subscribers.
One of the rarest footballers i've ever seen, an almost complete midfielder, great passing, long shots, unstoppable stamina, also an eye for goals close to a pure striker such Batigol .. in fact, Chelsea with any manager coming in always try to find 'another' him.. with Ramires, Kovacic etc... This type that i also love to play when on football pitch or PlayStation solo career.. box to box.. but my stamina is not as good as this guy ..LoL..
He will be a top chelsea manager... Just hope they give him time....
Great as always
Best Midfielder in the Premier League era for me. Great video.
Marvellous footballer & nice bloke.
The man who made me a football fan!
This channel deserves to have +1m subs
Best football channel on TH-cam no doubt about it. Love the videos keep em coming ! 👍🏼
hey Alex × Joe great video! thanks for this. the role of lamps needed to be explained in this format so that we know that hes not only the lethal foot out of the box but also a serial killer passer.
yes, lamps is England's finest. lamps is Chelsea's finest.
Which app/video editing software do you use? Also, just wondered if you could throw some light on why Lampard and Gerrard didn't work for England
Arnav Bisht It wasnt a tactically issue or lack in quality its just the same problem that haunted spain for years before they won the euros . Its the belief or lack there of in themselves and their teammates on the big stage
Lampard and Gerrard didn't work for England as their extraordinary performances at club level were based on them being the free-er midfielder in a 3 man midfield. If you put 2 midfielders of that ilk in a 2 man midfield then you are essentially depriving them of the conditions required to replicate their club form. In a 3 man midfield (whether 4-3-3 with a holder or a 2-1 format as per 4-4-1-1/4-2-3-1) you have the security of 2 players (Makelele and Tiago/Essien or Alonso and Hamman/Mascherano) to fill gaps and control counters if you as the third man break into the box. It's interesting to note that Lampard's first few Chelsea seasons actually resulted in a far lower return of goals, that's because he was played in a 4-4-2 by the then Chelsea boss Claudio Ranieri (sure he's played 4-4-2 with another Premier League team!). Regarding Gerrard he was latterly used as the "1" in Benitez's 4-2-3-1/4-4-1-1. In conjunction with Fernando Torres this allowed him to reach his best Premier League goal tally (16) but also resulted in people saying he had no positional sense, well why would he need to with the positionally astute Mascherano and Alonso behind him? In effect England's selection of the both of Lampard and Gerrard was an attempt to cram their best players into a shape which took away the very conditions which allowed them to thrive in the first place, we had great players but they weren't properly utilised. It's also very difficult to play a goalscoring midfielder with freedom to raid into the box in conjunction with a number 10 like Rooney, you end up leaving 1 man covering the entirety of midfield which is unworkable at international level, add the fact that that 1 man would be Gerrard or Lampard doing a job they aren't suited for and you have a problem. Earlier this season you could see a similar problem with Man United attempting to play Pogba and Rooney in a 2-1 format. No coincidence that since Rooney was dropped the shape has allowed Pogba more freedom to create and raid into the box as he has 2 men behind him. Rooney isn't dynamic enough to play through the middle or out wide in a front 3 so he had to sacrificed.
theoneandonlycurz please oh please replace Gareth Southgate as the England manager. You're a genius, and no I'm not being sarcastic. If only you'd been the manager at the world cups and Euros.
that would be an excellent video... heck even just to go over why england fails all the time.. tactically speaking there is a reason.
Acti8e Blue It's actually pretty obvious when you take a close look at it, but theoneandonlycurz did put it across very eloquently. Just a shame that English managers were so stupid that something which should have been blindingly obvious was ignored.
Another great video! Well done guys! 👍👍👍
Who is here after he became manager of Chelsea
Me
Me
You
Those scoring stats are sick.
Well done on the video mate. Top shelf. Cheers.
World class player. Sad to see him retire.
Scholes and Gerrard wish they had Lampard's stats and talent
Haha even Lampard will tell you Scholes was better than he was lol.
There is a reason Scholes was two Champions League
Timbone lmao, shut the fuck up. Lampard won’t say such. Schooles is just a ginger carrick
If Gerrard had Lampards talent then we would have been mid table every single year and we would never win a trophy.
The format of these videos is outstanding. Impressive work
Thank you Egan!
Good stuff. Can you do one with Ballack playing in the XI too?
Great statistics guys , I'm not a Liverpool fan, but would like to see you making a similar video about Gerrard.
Can you do a video on Paul Scholes?
"felxible"
Otherwise, great stuff! Would've loved to hear about the nature of his goals between 04/05 and 9/10, but i guess there wasn't any room
Great video. Lampard is a legend of the game.
Umax it killing it with every video. Great work. Please make one on comparison between ferguson's and murihnio's manchester united..
this channel is amazing !
please do one on Scholes!!!
Excellent quality video, subscribed straight away!
Thanks Dominic
I really enjoy these style of videos that you produce.
Waiting for the comments from people trying to say he was overrated lmao. Lampard was pure class, his stats speak for themselves.
Those goal scoring stats, considering he played in midfield, are insane
Insane to think he only won three premierships. Feels like a lot more
He moved out from Chelsea when they won another title during mourinho second time
Great video as always! Lampard will go down as an easy top 10 midfielder to ever grace the game!
We'll miss you Lampard...😢😢😭😭
#COYB
#ChelseaFC
#KTBFFH
dont worry hes back
Because of him I like soccer n Chelsea.... A great player indeed
I still can't believe how Lampard, Gerrard, Beckham, Scholes, Joe Cole sort of a midfield pool with forwards like Heskey, Rooney, Owen and defenders like Campbell, Ferdinand, Terry, Cole managed notto achieve anything in 2000's. There were a lot of notable players who could support these men as well.
thanks for making this video for this legend
What a LEGEND.
Cool video, one of my favorite PL players ever (eventhough I'm a United supporter). Can you do one for Scholes, other for Giggs and other for Gerard? That would be awesome to have all those PL legends
Absolutely agree, he is the england midfielder finest ever
Frank Lampard has been selected as the Premier League's Player of the Decade, by facts and figures' wizards Opta.
Opta, who studied every Premier League game since January 2000, declared that Lampard has played in more games, most wins to his name, second-most number of assists and the fourth-highest goal scoring record.
Even Scholes cant beat him.
lamps was best player. i started watching football for him!!! love you lamps and already have missed you!!!
What a Legend!
Fabregas has finally surpassed Lampard's assist count :)
i dont like it how lampard is not recognized as much as barcelona and real madrid midfielders....i mean this guy have scored over 200 goals as a midfielder.... possibly has every trait a midfielder can possess....but i still fans respecting him as they respect other big players....
