Frank Lampard became the Premier League's leading goal-scoring midfielder on Monday night - but we want to know who you think is the best.
England veteran Lampard became the first midfielder to score 150 Premier League goals after Chelsea drew 1-1 at Fulham at Craven Cottage.
His landmark goal, netted from the penalty spot, put him top of a star-studded list of midfielders who have graced England's top tier since the Premier League began way back in 1992.
But we want to discuss who is the best goal-scoring midfielder in terms of not just goals but all-round play, unbelievable tekkers and influence.
After sifting through a lengthy shortlist with our readers on Twitter we came up with 16 contenders, and the votes are flying in if you want to cast yours here.
As well as the poll, we thought we'd get the debate cooking through our story comments facility to see if we can come up with the definitive answer to the question: "Who is simply the best?"
Feel free to suggest any other goal-scoring midfielders who have not made our list and explain your reasoning - and we've included wingers and attacking midfielders in our line-up.
Here is our 16-man shortlist (in no particular order):
Frank Lampard
Paul Scholes
Steven Gerrard
Matt Le Tissier
Cesc Fabregas
Ryan Giggs
Cristiano Ronaldo
Tim Cahill
David Beckham
Robert Pires
Clint Dempsey
Gary Speed
David Ginola
Gus Poyet
Rob Lee
Lee Bowyer
For what it's worth, I voted for Paul Scholes, with Matt Le Tissier and Cristiano Ronaldo not far behind him.
Cheers
