# Central Midfielder - Frank Lampard (177 goals)
Frank Lampard is the most prolific scoring midfielder in the history of the Premier League.
During an illustrious 20-season stint in the competition, Lampard played over 600 games, bagging over a century of goals as well as assists. The three-time Premier League winner scored at least ten goals in the competition in ten successive seasons (all with Chelsea).
Lampard's most prolific Premier League campaign was in 2009-10, as he scored 22 times to help Chelsea win their third title in six years. The former Chelsea manager also netted six times for Manchester City in his last Premier League campaign in 2014-15.
# Central Midfielder - Steven Gerrard (124 goals)
Steven Gerrard is one of the most elegant midfielders to have graced the Premier League.
A one-club man throughout his playing career, Gerrard played over 500 Premier League games for Liverpool. He scored over 100 goals in the competition and almost notched up a century of assists as well.
Gerrard came close to winning the Premier League in 2013-14. But a calamitous backpass sparked an epic implosion as Liverpool squandered their points lead in the last few weeks to finish behind Manchester City.
Gerrard registered double-digit goal and assist tallies thrice in his career. His most prolific Premier League season was in 2008-09, when he scored 16 goals and also racked up 11 assists.
Now managing Scottish side Rangers, Gerrard is tipped to be a future Liverpool manager, considering his exploits at the club.
# Central Midfielder - Paul Scholes (107 goals)
Paul Scholes is one of the most decorated midfielders in the history of the Premier League.
The 11-time Premier League winner, another one-club man like Gerrard, played nearly 20 seasons in the competition for Manchester United. Scholes played nearly 500 games in the Premier League, registering a century of goals and over 50 assists.
The now 46-year-old scored many memorable goals throughout his career, including a rare Premier League hat-trick against Newcastle United.
Scholes played his final Premier League game in the 2012-13 season, helping United win their 13th and latest title in the competition.
