TheFA.com - Frank's the write stuff: "Three Lions midfielder Frank Lampard has been named the Football Writers Association Footballer Of The Year.
He pipped fellow England teammates John Terry and Jamie Carragher to become the first home-grown player to win the award since Teddy Sheringham in 2001.
And FWA chairman Gerry Cox says the fact that three members of Sven-Goran Eriksson's squad were in the running for the award is great news for the Head Coach's World Cup plans."
