Only the seasons this archive holds are listed — it begins in 2000/01 and covers league matches in the five competitions named above, so a career that started earlier or ran through other leagues shows a gap here rather than a blank.

How this page is put together

The career table above is the structured record held on Wikidata under a public-domain licence, read once and cached, not queried while you are reading. The player is bound to that record by date of birth rather than by name: a name search returns the wrong Klose and three different Robinhos, and a page carrying somebody else’s links cannot afford that.

Compare any two clubs he played for with the head-to-head tool, or read the records these seasons feed into.

5 on record: West Ham United F.C., Swansea City A.F.C., Chelsea F.C., Manchester City F.C., New York City FC.

How many of those seasons are in this archive?

15 of them, at 3 clubs. The archive runs from 2000/01 and covers the Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, Ligue 1 and the Bundesliga, so seasons outside that window or in other leagues are not counted.

Which competitions can this site say anything about?

Where do these figures come from?

The league placings and points beside it are not: those are recalculated here from every individual result in the archive, which is why they can be compared with any other club or season on this site.

Career record

Frank Lampard, born 1978-06-20, in London, England, listed at 184 cm, a midfielder. The club record below covers 4 senior teams between 1999 and 2016.

ClubSeasons Seasons recorded
New York City FC20161
Manchester City2014–20152
England1999–201415
Chelsea2005–20139

The record spans 18 years, from 1999 to 2016, across 3 clubs, with 2 moves between them. The longest single spell was at England, 15 recorded seasons from 1999 to 2014, and the average club spell runs to 4.0 seasons.

International football accounts for a further 15 seasons with England, running alongside the club years rather than after them — which is why the dates in the table overlap.

Spells are listed by the seasons in which the player appears in the provider’s squad records. Where two clubs overlap in the same year the player moved mid-season, and both are shown rather than one being chosen.

Read against this site’s own league archive: Manchester City did not finish top of the league in any season of his 2014–2015 spell; Chelsea won the title in 2005/06, 2009/10 during his 2005–2013 spell.

Honours

13 titles are recorded, alongside 19 runner-up or other placed finishes. Both lists come from the same squad records as the career table above, so a competition the player was registered for but did not play in can still appear.
