Frank Lampard is one of the greatest midfielders that football has ever seen.

Chelsea's all-time record goalscorer with a Champions League trophy and runners-up finish in the Ballon d'Or, Lampard is up there with the finest players that English football has ever produced.

And although the days of his last-ditch runs into the Stamford Bridge penalty area might be behind us, that doesn't mean that his standing in the minds of Chelsea and England fans has diminished.

Lampard chats with Neville

Besides, it's a testament to Lampard's enduring legacy that he is constantly compared to Steven Gerrard and Paul Scholes in social media debates so long after hanging up his boots.

Now, Lampard is looking for his next job in management off the back of spells at Derby County and Chelsea with his voice, approach and opinion still very much respected in the coaching sphere.

As has become customary, Neville asked his guest a series of quick-fire questions with Lampard having to take on everything from the Scholes vs Gerrard debate and his toughest ever opponent.

But before we delve too deep into Lampard's answers, we can't look past the fact that he admitted to changing his opinion of football's biggest question of all: Cristiano Ronaldo or Lionel Messi?

When Neville posed the question, Lampard honestly replied: "You know what, I've always been a Messi man and then I watched your debate with Carra recently actually and I actually think for Ronaldo's output and actual numbers in big finals and semi-finals like we've seen, I think I maybe give him the edge now."
