anyone who says Lampard is overrated is is fool. Period. The guy scores 15 + goals a season. Him and Terry and Makalele were the main reasons Chelsea won 2 back to back league titles. In fact I think he was Chelseas top goalscorer for those 2 seasons an he almost started every match for them bar injuries (and he smashed the most league goals scored for a midfielder in the EPL as well). Now tell me how he is overrated. The guy has an impressive work rate. Sure he's not a flashy players but he is very effecient at what he does. and a gritty player as well. Just the type of player that we need.
now to all the people that say he only scored deflection goals...Who gives a crap? Goals are goals. besides the fact that he can just shoot and score from a deflection means that we can:
A- Score againt the run of play
B- no need for a buildup in attack(which we suck at) or worrying about the other team defending with too many players in the box.
and to finally fininsh things I have to say this. Gerrard may be a more complete player. but Lampard is more consistent.
one more thing: Lampard would fit into our team so perfectly that it's scary.

right on the :money: Burke.Lampard IS over rated for 2 reasons.
1) He's English, & everything is hyped by their media to a point where pretty much every player is over rated.
2) He plays without responsibility. Chelsea play a back 4 containing some of the best defenders in the EPL. They protect this with 1, sometimes 2 DM. They play 3 up front, occupying typical EPL back fours. Given the poor technical & tactical set ups in that league, a player from CM who doesnt have to really help his defense will score goals. Look at Fabregas, Gerrard, Scholes, Kevin Nolan(!), MG Pederson, & many more.

How exactly do we "not need" Lampard? Last time I checked, Nedved is on his last legs and we don't have any ideas in the center of the pitch if Ranieri will continue using Nocerino and Zanetti. We do need a player like Lampard if we seriously want to challenge for Serie A; somehow who can pick up the ball and make things happen for us around the box. Unless Nedved is deployed behind the strikers, we don't have a player such as Frank.
Personally I'm not a big fan of Lampard, but for 7 million he's coming at a seemingly discounted rate.

em......drogba is interested
i know where i woudl rather spend the money
seriously though lampard and ranieri have a good relationship so there could be a good chance of this happening. he is better than anything we have, though i would prefer a playmaker. but if you looka t who we are linked with i would prefer lampard to riquelme as he at least works and scores goals from mdifeld for fun
