Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard rates the current season the best of his career.

The England midfielder has become the first central midfielder in the history of the Premier League to score 20-plus (he's got 21) goals in a season.

Lampard told The Sun: "Because of the goals I have scored in this run-in, this season is up there with my best already.

"Last season was my best yet all-round because of the way I played, but then you think how important it is to perform at the business end of the season.

"You always remember the players that turn up for the big games and help win leagues - guys like Wayne Rooney or Thierry Henry.

"So, if we do go on to win it this season, then I would have to say that for the trophies and the goals that this is my best campaign."
