Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard has revealed how highly he rates Wayne Rooney as a striker.
The pair are England team-mates and Lampard is well aware of the attributes of Rooney's game.
He told The Sun: "Wayne is the most talented player I have ever played alongside.
"As a midfielder, as soon as I get on the ball I want to play it in behind the other team's midfield or defence.
"I need someone to be ahead of that action, already getting into a good position. As you learn to play with Wayne, you realise that his awareness is exceptional. It's his key strength.
"Wayne Rooney is an incredible player. He would get into any club or international side in the world."
