Frank James Lampard Jr. OBE [ ˈlæmpɑːd ] (born June 20, 1978 in Romford , London ) is a former English football player and today's coach . He had played at West Ham United , Swansea City , Manchester City , New York City FC and Chelsea FC for 13 years . He has been the head coach of Chelsea FC since the 2019/20 season.
As a central midfielder , Lampard was known for his powerful long-range shots and his above-average goal hazard, which he often developed through advances from midfield. For the English national team, he completed 106 senior international matches between 1999 and 2014. With Chelsea, he won the Champions League in 2012 and the Europa League in 2013 , and three English championships in 2005, 2006 and 2010. There were also two triumphs in the league cup (2005 and 2007) and four FA Cup wins in 2007, 2009, 2010 and 2012 . Before that, he won the UEFA Intertoto Cup with West Ham United in 1999 . In November 2005, Lampard finished second behind Brazilian midfielder Ronaldinho in the European Footballer of the Year poll and repeated this result just a month later - again behind Ronaldinho - in the FIFA World Cup . In the same year, however, he had already received the award of England's Footballer of the Year from local football journalists .
Career as a player
societies
West Ham United
Lampard began his career at West Ham United, where his father was an assistant coach. He joined the club's youth academy in July 1994 and signed his first professional contract there on July 1, 1995.
In October 1995 he was loaned for a few months to the then third division club Swansea City , made his debut for this club on October 7, 1995 against Bradford City and won this game 2-0. In addition to two cup appearances, he completed nine championship games for Swansea City and scored his first and only goal in the encounter against Brighton & Hove Albion . In January 1996 he returned to West Ham.
On January 31, 1996 he also played for the first time in the game against Coventry City for West Ham United, but could not continue to play in the regular formation for the time being. On March 15, 1997, he broke his right leg in the game against Aston Villa and had to end the season prematurely. He scored his first goal for the professional team in the 1997/98 season, during an away win at Barnsley FC . He had previously headed the West Hams youth team as captain and reached the FA Youth Cup final with the team in 1996 .
In the 1998/99 season Lampard finally achieved the breakthrough at West Ham United. He didn't miss a single game during the entire season and surprisingly finished fifth with his team in the Premier League. Lampard was the central figure among a large number of young and talented players, including Joe Cole , Michael Carrick and Rio Ferdinand , for example . But when Ferdinand left the club in November 2000 for Leeds United and then both his father and his uncle Harry Redknapp left the club, Lampard also decided to turn his back on West Ham United. Despite financially lucrative offers from Leeds and Aston Villa, Lampard stayed in London and moved to Chelsea for £ 11 million.
Chelsea FC
The silent ascent (2001-2003)
On May 15, 2001 Lampard signed a contract with Chelsea and was one of the first commitments of the local trainer Claudio Ranieri . On July 26, 2001 Lampard made his debut in a preparatory game against Leyton Orient for Chelsea and came on August 19, 2001 in the 1-1 draw against Newcastle United in the Premier League for Chelsea for the first time. Although he was expelled from the field in his fourth league game against Tottenham Hotspur - the only suspension in his career to date - he only missed one competitive game, scored a total of seven goals and was an integral part of the team right away. His development was slow and unspectacular at the beginning and although he became a regular player right away, the performances in the first two seasons were overshadowed by the fact that the club made spectacular transfers with much higher transfer fees to many top players and he also often played in midfield The shadow of the Italian creative player Gianfranco Zola stood.
In the 2002/03 season, he played all of his club's games and scored eight goals. In the championship he finished fourth with Chelsea and was thus able to take part in the Champions League for the first time in the following season . Only in his third season, when the era of the Russian oil billionaire Roman Abramowitsch began, Lampard was able to develop freely in his style of play and became one of the best midfielders in Europe.
The leading player in the championship teams (2003-2006)
Lampard started the new season well and was honored for his achievements in September 2003 as the best player of the month (in the official ranking as "Barclays Player of the Month"). In October he received a similar award from football fans as “PFA Fans' Player of the Month”. Later in the season he moved into the semi-finals of the Champions League with Chelsea and lost to AS Monaco after Lampard had previously scored four goals in 14 games. In the English league, he and his team won the runner-up behind Arsenal .
The 2004/05 season became the most successful season in the history of Chelsea FC and a milestone in Frank Lampard's career. As a control center in midfield, he played all 38 Premier League games, scored an above-average 13 goals for a midfielder (out of a total of 19 goals in all competitions) and led his team to the first championship with a 12-point gap to second-placed Arsenal after exactly 50 years. He contributed four goals in the Champions League and reached the semi-finals with Chelsea for the second time in a row. Last but not least, he scored two goals in six league cup games and was also involved in winning the title there. With these good performances, Lampard finally catapulted himself into the focus of global football experts; Among other things, the former captain of the Brazilian national team Carlos Alberto and the former top Dutch player Johan Cruyff described him as one of the best midfielders in Europe. The English journalists' association FWA voted him England's Footballer of the Year at the end of the season .
The above-average performances by Lampard continued in the 2005/06 season . He scored 16 goals in the Premier League to successfully defend his title, contributed two goals in five Champions League games and with two goals in the domestic cup games he reached the 20-goal limit. In October 2005, his coach José Mourinho called him the “best player in the world” after a game against Blackburn Rovers at Stamford Bridge - an assessment that Matthias Sammer had also expressed a few days earlier in a kicker interview.
A month earlier, Lampard had been nominated alongside his teammate John Terry in the “FIFPro World XI” selection made up of professional footballers from 40 countries. In winter 2005, with second place behind Ronaldinho, he just missed the European Footballer of the Year award and later the FIFA World Player of the Year award.
Further championship titles and winning the Champions League (2006-2014)
A back injury to John Terry ensured that Lampard often took over the role of team captain in the 2006/07 season . His good form at the turn of the year was particularly noteworthy, when he scored seven goals in eight games and received the award for best player of the month (“PFA Fans' Player of the Month”) in January. The Actim Index - a method developed by the company "PA Sport" together with statisticians from Salford University to determine the performance of British football players - saw Frank Lampard in fifth place in the Premier League at the end of the season and also in the top team of the past season.
For the second time in a row Lampard scored a total of 20 goals in all competitions, including on October 31, 2006 at the Camp Nou a lift to compensate for an acute angle against Víctor Valdés from FC Barcelona and on March 11, 2007 after a 3-1 deficit two goals to 3: 3 in the FA Cup quarter-finals against Tottenham Hotspur . He had previously scored three goals in the same cup competition in the third round against Macclesfield Town on January 6, 2007.
Although Lampard answered questions about his future after winning the FA Cup final by saying that he wanted to stay with Chelsea “forever”, speculation about a possible move increased. A part of the English press landscape suspected an impending transfer to Juventus Turin , especially since Claudio Ranieri - former "foster father" Lampards in the early days at Chelsea - had taken over the coaching position at Juventus. Contrary to much speculation, Lampard signed a new five-year deal with Chelsea on August 13, 2008. In 2012 he won the Champions League with Chelsea 4-3 on penalties against FC Bayern Munich. On March 17, 2013, he scored his 200th competitive goal for Chelsea with a header against West Ham United.
Manchester City
On July 24, 2014, Frank Lampard moved to the US club for two years, according to the owner company of the MLS franchise New York City FC and Manchester City. Since the franchise would not officially start playing until 2015, Lampard, like all other teammates, was loaned to another club. Until the end of 2014 he should play for the parent club Manchester City . In January 2015, however, it turned out that Lampard had never signed a contract with NYCFC, but instead had signed a one-year deal with Manchester City. A termination clause that would have allowed Lampard to move to the USA at the beginning of the year was removed on December 31, 2014.
On September 21, 2014, he scored his first goal for Manchester City in a 1-1 draw against his ex-club Chelsea. He also set a new record at the same time, because Lampard had scored against 39 Premier League teams, which no player had before.
New York City
On July 1, 2015, Lampard finally moved to New York City FC in the current season of Major League Soccer . His debut was delayed due to an injury until August 1st of that year. On September 16, 2015, he made his first goal in the MLS in the game against Toronto FC . On October 2, 2015, he scored the fastest goal in the MLS for New York City FC in the game against DC United .
Special
In Chelsea's 6-1 against Derby County (March 12, 2008) and in the 7-1 against Aston Villa (March 27, 2010) Lampard scored four goals each. He is one of the few players in the Premier League who has scored four goals in one game several times. In the 2006-2010 seasons Lampard scored at least 20 goals for Chelsea in all competitive matches. On the penultimate match day of the 2012/13 season, he scored both goals for a 2-1 win over Aston Villa. This means that his first goal in that game, his 202nd goal for Chelsea, broke Bobby Tambling's club scoring record, only to top it in the same game with the final score.
Lampard is an athlete ambassador for the development aid organization Right to Play .
National team
At the age of 18, Lampard was appointed to England's U-21 national team by Peter Taylor . He made his debut on November 13, 1997 in Crete against Greece and in 2000 led the team during the U-21 European Championship in Slovakia as captain. He also played his last game for the youth team in June 2000 against the hosts and scored a total of nine goals for the selection - only Alan Shearer and Francis Jeffers he was surpassed with 13 goals each on this record.
Lampard made his debut for the senior national team on October 10, 1999 against Belgium at the Stadium of Light - in the 2-1 win he was replaced after 76 minutes by his team-mate Dennis Wise . However, he was not appointed to the 23-man squad for the EM 2000 or for the 2002 World Cup in Japan and South Korea. He scored his first international goal on August 20, 2003 in a friendly against Croatia , in which England got the upper hand 3-1. The consistently good performance in the club ultimately ensured that he then played more and more in the starting eleven and in a preparatory game for Euro 2004 against Iceland (6-1) he scored his second goal for England.
Lampard was appointed to the squad for the European Championship finals in Portugal and performed so well in the tournament until reaching the quarter-finals that he was elected to the UEFA All-Star team in the end. When Paul Scholes finally withdrew from the national team, Lampard's position in midfield was even more solid, which he demonstrated with five goals in qualifying for the 2006 World Cup - instead of Scholes, he now wore the number 8 jersey also the choice of the best player of the England national team in 2004 and 2005.
At the 2006 World Cup in Germany, Lampard was voted "Man of the Match" in the game against Paraguay, which England won 1-0. Nevertheless, he could not confirm his good club performance and, unlike in Euro 2004 , he did not score in this tournament. His unexpectedly weak appearances triggered violent reactions in the English media landscape, which in broad speculations "diagnosed" burnout or assumed distracting thoughts of change. England coach Sven-Göran Eriksson , however, defended Lampard and pointed out that there was nothing lacking in his readiness for action and that he also had the highest score of all players during the tournament with 24 shots towards the opposing goal. Lampard came in all five matches of England used and was at the end of next Steven Gerrard and Jamie Carragher from Liverpool one of three players in the quarter-final penalty shoot-out against Portugal on Ricardo failed.
After the World Cup, the acceptance of Lampard by the English national team changed significantly. During the friendly against Brazil in the new Wembley Stadium on June 1, 2007, he was whistled by his own fans, which prompted the new England coach Steve McClaren to publicly support his leading player. The expressions of displeasure continued on October 13, 2007, when Lampard came on as a substitute in the European Championship qualifier against Estonia in the second half. On November 21, 2007 he converted a penalty in the home game against Croatia - but his team lost 3-2 and thus missed the qualification for the European Championship. His appointment as "Man of the Match" following the game was acknowledged with a whistle from the English supporters.
On June 27, 2010 Lampard scored a regular goal in the round of 16 of the World Cup in South Africa against Germany, which was not counted by the team of referees from Uruguay. The ball bounced off the lower edge of the crossbar behind the goal line, hit the crossbar again and was caught by the German goalkeeper Manuel Neuer . This not given goal would have equalized the 2-2 for the strong Englishmen and indirectly initiated the defeat of the English. It was seen by the German press as equalizing justice for Geoff Hurst's Wembley goal in the 1966 World Cup final. Since the goal was not given, Lampard was able to set a new negative record at the World Cup: With a total of 37 shots on goal in all of his World Cup appearances, Lampard was unable to score a single scored goal. Lampard missed the 2012 European Championships in Poland and Ukraine due to a thigh injury.
On September 10, 2013, he played his 100th international match in the World Cup qualifier against Ukraine . The game was also the 100th World Cup qualifier for England. On August 26, 2014, Lampard announced his end of career in the national team.
Career as a coach
For the 2018/19 season Lampard took over the second division team from Derby County . He signed a contract that ran until June 30, 2021. He led the team to 6th place, which allowed them to participate in the promotion playoffs. After they had prevailed in the semi-finals against Leeds United , Derby County lost the final for the third promotion place against Aston Villa .
For the season 2019/20 returned Lampard for Chelsea back and the Premier League side took over as successor Maurizio Sarri , who to Juventus was changed. He signed a contract with the Europa League winner that ran until June 30, 2022.
