winner right John Terry you said it Captain leader Legend what a way to kickart this podcast series
but you've delved into that contact book and you you've plundered the man who John Terry told us on
this podcast last time out is the greatest Chelsea player of all time that man is super Frank super
FR Lampard where do he go super Frank super Frank super super Frank super Franky how much did he
pay for you to it's easy to see why you were a footballer not a musician not much he's scored
so many goals for us to be able to win all those trophies uh that we won so yeah I think that's what it's paid me you were at the football club forg me 11 years 12 years yeah about 11 yeah 11
years yeah he yeah he was there longer than I was probably two three years more I think yeah
he moved to of course Man City in 2014 well maybe get Frank's thoughts on that but in all your years
at the football club I know you've said on the previous podcast Eden azard natural ability best player you probably played with where's Frank Lampard JT has said he's the greatest Chelsea
played of all time is he do you agree with that I think so I think so I I couldn't agree more uh I
think when you look at what he's achieved at the club um coming into the club and uh you know how
to prove a law because you know I read a little bit about him you know when he came into the club he came from West Ham obviously uh and there's a lot of people you know there's a lot of debate if
he could do it at Chelsea uh but fair play to him m i mean what a what a great professional is uh
being at Club watching Frank train every day and watching him play week in week out and the way he
went about his business as well you know his cool Cal Collective guy doesn't speak much but gets
the job done and you know sometimes that's what you need you need a cool head you need a someone
who's Cool Cam Collective and that's what Frank gave us it's interesting you said there that he didn't say much what was he like on the pitch on a match day was he demanding of you he was yeah yeah
he was demanding he will tell you there lots of times me and him must had we've had fights yeah
yeah verbal fights in the train no no no no no no we haven't squared up on each other no but wins
a boxing who wins a boxing fight you or Frank we both tall we both big we both I don't know
who's going to win but I think you he's not here yet I'll see you you definitely School Frank in
a but no definitely we've had few times where you know we've both had fights you know during
the game um where he's expected me to raise my my my level and same from me as well I expect him to
raise his level or do something or help me out in terms of defensively I know Frank always wants to
score goals which is what we want from him as well because we can't depend solely on DJ drug by all
the striker to score goals and that's something that Frank G gave us during those years you know he was always tipping in goals um I think he's the highest go scorer now 211 goals for Chelsea
I mean that is remarkable that's remarkable for yeah what was his best quality I mean myself as
