Lampard 217 games, Win % 42.86
Parker 212 games, Win % 41.98


Using Chelsea as a stick to beat Parker with is unfair as the likes of me and you could have got a tune out of any Chelsea side under Abronavich

What strikes me about Lampard and Coventry is that they are scoring a lot of goals but also conceding. Lampard always struggled keeping clean sheets at Everton and now Coventry, that for me says, that he will never be able to cut it at the top, unlike Cardy who knows how to keep it tight and is a master of clean sheets
