Monday Night Football challenged Frank Lampard to name his Premier League team of the season.
Voting is soon due to open for the PFA Player of the Year Awards with footballers from throughout the Premier League being asked to pick the outstanding performers from this campaign.
But we decided to get in early and asked Chelsea legend Lampard who he would be voting for - and he picked a couple of English defenders as well as five names from his former club.
Frank Lampard's Team of the Season: David de Gea (Man Utd); Cesar Azpilicueta (Chelsea), Michael Keane (Burnley), David Luiz (Chelsea), Ryan Bertrand (Southampton); Adam Lallana (Liverpool), Dele Alli (Tottenham), N'Golo Kante (Chelsea), Eden Hazard (Chelsea); Diego Costa (Chelsea), Harry Kane (Tottenham)
FRANK SAYS: You can forgive Dele Alli a slow start to the season, but the way he has played since the turn of the year has been very impressive. I love his confidence.
The more we talk about the England team, when we went to World Cups, did we believe we could beat the best teams? I think Dele Alli is really confident in himself. He believes in his own ability and rightly so. Not many players come into a Premier League team and do that. That's not the norm. That's Wayne Rooney, that's Michael Owen. The rest of us have to feel our way in. He is certainly ahead of the game.
I picked Harry Kane and Diego Costa. I could have made a case for Romelu Lukaku to get in up front, but i think those two are the outstanding strikers at the moment.
Why did I pick Michael Keane? I think we have to give credit to Burnley as a team and to a player who has been let go by a top team and had to go back down the ladder and prove himself.
I've seen some games where he has been fantastic this year. He might not be in everyone's team of the year - I could have picked anyone from Chelsea's back three and didn't want to overload with Chelsea - but you have to give respect to young English players who have made a mark in a team that are defending a lot. He has been outstanding.
I think David Luiz has matured. He was a very good player before - we won the Champions League with him and Gary Cahill as centre-halves in the final - but the criticism of him at that point could have been 'can he make a mistake and does he try and over-play?'
Since he's been back, in a role in the middle of a back three, he has shown discipline and quality on the ball. His defensive stuff has been brilliant and I couldn't leave him out.
He's probably the best centre-half in the league, for me, this season.
