Chelsea John Terry pens heartfelt Instagram tribute to Lampard

Chelsea captain John Terry has taken to Instagram to post an emotional tribute to Frank Lampard, with the Blues defender hailing the Manchester City new-boy a Stamford Bridge legend, despite his dramatic strike against his old club.

Lampard admitted that he was lost for words after his scarcely-believable equalizer for City, but his friend and former team-mate Terry managed to conjure some to praise the midfielder.


Lampard had been branded a traitor by some Chelsea fans for joining Premier League rivals City, but Terry clearly doesn’t share that opinion as he reaffirmed his belief that Lampard is someone who will always have the Blues in his heart.

The recently-retired England international was afforded a fantastic reception by both sets of fans at the Etihad, and Terry hopes his former colleague will get to experience another back at Stamford Bridge.

Terry said: ‘It felt strange playing against Lamps today and seeing him in a Man City shirt,Unbelievable reception the Chelsea fans gave to a true Legend today that has Chelsea in is heart forever, I really hope Lamps gets the opportunity to receive that reception at the Bridge one day. Good point today that keeps us 3 points clear at the top of the premier league.
