Quote

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.

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

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)

In international football, you need pace and you need your players up top to create things out of nothing and run at people.

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 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.

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.

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.

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.

I am a man who likes to play consistently I always play better when I'm on a run of games.

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

In a way, I've thrived on the competition, perhaps it has made a better player because of it.
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.

I read Michael Caine's biography. It was about him growing up

I had a chance to go to Italy when I was younger and that would have been tough because of the language. America is easier but I really loved it.
