There's so many kids out there and it's such a cut-throat world. I've seen a lot of my mates, you know, who are better players than me at a certain age, and they're not in football now.

More quotes by Frank Lampard
To be honest, I was Mum's boy. Always was, always will be.
Frank Lampard
I can't stress the importance of working hard enough, work on all aspects of your game. If you does that and you have the ability, you'll come through.
Frank Lampard
Everyone's got unfinished business with Barcelona. They're the greatest team in the world.
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
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
Training's completely different now. It used to be a lot of running and work without the ball. Now it's all with the ball, which any player loves.
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
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.
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
When you see young players coming into the squad and pushing you, no matter what age you are, you have to react. You have to worry about yourself and perform as well as you can. If you end up looking around at others, wondering whos performing better, you take your eye off the ball.
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
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.
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
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
When you take a lot of stick you want to ram it down people's throats.
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
In international football, you need pace and you need your players up top to create things out of nothing and run at people.
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.
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.
