Club records and the most clinical midfielder in MLS - Lampard´s New York City spell in Opta numbers

Frank Lampard was the most clinical midfielder
across MLS during his second and final season
with New York City.
The club announced on Monday the former
Chelsea star will be leaving when his contract
expires at the end of this year, with his final
appearance having come in the 5-0 play-offs
defeat to Toronto.
The 38-year-old concludes his first spell away
from the Premier League having demonstrated
much of the ruthlessness that made him one of
English football's finest for over a decade.
1/117 - In 2016, Lampard has the best minutes-
per-goal ratio of any midfielder to have scored
five or more in MLS, with an average of a goal
every 117 minutes.
12 - Only three players in his position managed
to score more than the 12 goals he netted this
season, Diego Valeri of Portland Timbers (13),
Giovani Dos Santos of LA Galaxy (15), and
Montreal Impact's Ignacio Piatti (20).
15 - Lampard struck 15 times in total for New
York City, with only David Villa (29) bagging
more for the club since the former England
international's debut.
3 - The West Ham United academy graduate will
leave Yankee Stadium with two club records to
his name. He scored their first hat-trick in MLS
in a 5-1 rout of Colorado Rapids in July.
46 - And his opening strike against DC United in
October 2015, which came after just 46 seconds,
was the fastest in NYCFC history in the top
flight.
