Lampard hails defender Terry
Print Edition
FORMER Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard has hailed John Terry as the English Premier League’s greatest ever defender after the club announced its captain will leave Stamford Bridge at the end of the season.
The 36-year-old former England international, who made his Chelsea debut in 1998, played more than 700 games for the club and has been its most successful captain.
He won the 2012 UEFA Champions League, four EPL titles, five FA Cups, three League Cups and the Europa League with Chelsea.
Lampard, who was capped 106 times for England, is Chelsea’s all-time top goalscorer with 211 goals in over 400 appearances in all competitions.
“The last man standing of an incredible era for @chelseafc,” Lampard wrote on his instagram account. “What a pleasure to play with the greatest defender in the @premierleague history.
“He led the club both on and off the pitch from the moment he made his debut.
“He set standards for everyone, whether it was demanding excellence in training, fighting for every win or respecting how fortunate we were to play for such a great club.”
Terry has started only four league games this season under manager Antonio Conte as the London outfit leads the league standings, four points clear with six games to play.
Capped 78 times by England, the only other club Terry has played for was Nottingham Forest during a six-game loan spell in 2000.
