If you're going to be a man that reads the papers and takes everything as gospel truth, that's a sign of who you are, that isn't a sign of the reality.

More quotes by Frank Lampard
The advantage does lie with us because we're at home and if we can't motivate ourselves for this match then we can't motivate ourselves for any match. I think the crowd will be up for it as well.
Frank Lampard
I admit I was somewhat concerned when we started to sign so many players - naturally you are going to worry about whether you can retain your place in the side.
Frank Lampard
If players are performing for you, their age shouldn't really matter, especially because the older players can bring their experience to the table.
Frank Lampard
I'm not the kind of player to see out my time and sit with my bum on the bench too much. I want to be involved. That's my character.
Frank Lampard
A lot of things happened when I left there, and to be fair they treated me really bad, and now I have to play against them so I don't have any feelings for them at all.
Frank Lampard
Goals never come easy. No one gives you goals.
Frank Lampard
If I could have been anyone in the world, it would have been Ronaldinho. He's fantastic, I love watching him.
Frank Lampard
In a way, I've thrived on the competition, perhaps it has made a better player because of it.
Frank Lampard
Everyone's got unfinished business with Barcelona. They're the greatest team in the world.
Frank Lampard
I'm really happy here. I think anyone who knows me well, and the fans too I hope, they know that I love the area, and the bond that I've had with the fans has been fantastic.
Frank Lampard
I don't think Wayne Rooney would be affected if you booed him, that's just how he is, but others go under. They really suffer with it. I think I'm somewhere in the middle... now. I've become tougher as I've got older.
Frank Lampard
There is such a belief in the squad that we could really do something.
Frank Lampard
Footballers do get a hard time, and there is a lot of generalization going on. When you get to meet players and know them as lads, it's always a bit different.
Frank Lampard
In terms of not retiring? I don't want to leave and think to myself, Maybe I should have stayed a bit longer. I'm dwelling on it. I have turned down a few Premier League offers. But the fact is, after being at Chelsea for so long and a year with Manchester City, I don't want to get involved in a relegation dogfight.
Frank Lampard
I'm a very private person, and you have a lot of people looking into your personal life, away from football. That's the one thing that I don't like, but I always remember how lucky we are that we're playing football.
Frank Lampard
I have a lot of good football talk with cabbies, but when you want to get somewhere in a hurry, it can be distracting. I always know they're going to want to talk football if 'Talksport' is on the radio.
Frank Lampard
I had a fear of losing, a fear of what might happen if I had a bad game. Would I get dropped? I don't remember a lot of stuff in my career.
Frank Lampard
Of course, there will be few people who are sympathetic but you don't become a great team overnight, no matter how much money you have at your disposal.
Frank Lampard
Obviously, it has taken time to work with the players around me and with so many new faces coming in the summer, in a way it's been more difficult.
Frank Lampard
I always wanted to be a winner, to score goals. There was no massive bravery in terms of my mum passing away and stepping up. I just wanted to score. I know everyone would have given me a pass on it if I hadn't taken it. But I'd have had the hump with myself if I'd shirked it.
