John Terry, Frank Lampard and Petr Cech have all been given Uefa awards in their respective positions.

The Player of the Year Awards, which are based on the three Blues' performances during last season's Champions League campaign, were handed out during the ceremony in Monaco to celebrate the group stage draw.

Captain Terry won the Defender of the Year Award after leading the Blues to our first Champions League Final in Moscow last May.

Frank Lampard beat off the likes of Paul Scholes, Steven Gerrard and Cesc Fabregas to be given the Midfielder of the Year Award while Petr Cech was named Goalkeeper of the Year for the second year in a row after another impressive season on the European stage between the Chelsea posts.

Chief executive Peter Kenyon said: 'It is a major achievement for Petr, John and Frank, but it also reflects very well on the club and we are delighted that three Chelsea players have been awarded Uefa Player of the Year in their respective fields.

'It is well deserved and Frank has been in and around achieving that award for the last four seasons, so it is not just about last season, it is about the contribution those three players have made to European football over the past few years.

'It is great they have got what they deserve.'

Speaking about Cech's second successive award in two years Kenyon said: 'We all think Petr Cech is world class and this just demonstrates that he is on top of his game and everybody in Europe recognises him as one of Europe's greatest goalkeepers.'

Fresh from his award and back in England, John Terry will be appearing live on Chelsea TV's Big Match Countdown tomorrow (Friday) at 7pm, taking calls and emails from fans.
