GK: Petr Cech
One of the best goalkeepers of the Premier League era, Chelsea star Petr Cech is an unsurprising choice for the number one spot.
DR: Branislav Ivanovic
A terrific right-back who relishes the big games, Lampard’s old Blues team-mate Branislav Ivanovic is another Chelsea man to make the XI.
DL: Ashley Cole
A player who left Chelsea at the same time as Lampard, Ashley Cole is another former Stamford Bridge star in this dream lineup.
DC: John Terry
One of Chelsea’s best ever players, John Terry is one of the finest defenders of the modern era and it is no surprise to see him selected by Lampard here.
DC: Rio Ferdinand
Lampard’s old team-mate at West Ham and for England, Rio Ferdinand is another world class centre-back from the modern era.
MC: Claude Makelele
A crucial player in his time at Chelsea, Claude Makelele formed a fine partnership in midfield with Lampard and makes the cut here.
MC: Steven Gerrard
Although many said Lampard and Gerrard couldn’t play together, the Liverpool legend is selected alongside Makelele here, with Lamps clearly a fan of Stevie G.
AMR: David Silva
A superb playmaker for Manchester City, Lampard has clearly been impressed by playing alongside David Silva at the Etihad Stadium this season.
AML: Eden Hazard
The PFA Player of the Year, Chelsea winger Eden Hazard makes it into Lampard’s XI on the left flank after starring for the Blues this year.
FC: Didier Drogba
Perhaps the best striker to ever pull on a Chelsea shirt, Didier Drogba is an obvious choice up front in Lampard’s dream lineup after so many memorable games for the London giants.
FC: Sergio Aguero
Finally, another City player makes the team as Sergio Aguero clearly impressed Lampard as they played alongside each other for one single season.
