I never relax on the year before. Every year I want to get more out of myself so I use it as a driving force, rather than a pressure thing.
Frank Lampard
Image
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 was always pretty good at school, but a lot of it was memorising, maybe cheating off your mates, stuff that gets you through.

Henry is a great man, I really like him. He is a great professional and I think he will be a great captain for them. He's been the outstanding player in the Premiership for the last three or four years

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.

But we have the players, as we have shown against good opposition this season, we're an extremely difficult side to live with at home. (on Chelsea)
Frank Lampard

Even with the quality of players that we have, they're an extremely hard side to break down and once they get on top of you, you find it difficult to stem the flow of attacks.

I think every player enjoys praise and I have to work extremely hard on the training ground to bring my game together.

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.

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.

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.
