Chelsea midfielder http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Frank-Lampard-c14097 has revealed he feels the recent FA Cup win over Liverpool is the sweetest yet in his career with the Blues.
The 33-year-old played a big role in the FA Cup win at Wembley, with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 have made quite the comeback after an extremely poor season, which sees them finishing out
of the top four in the English Premier League.
Lampard revealed in an interview:
"It's been a tough season, so it makes it that even more bit special to win.”
The London side had an incredible start to the 2011-2012 season under young Portuguese manager Andre Villas-Boas. Unfortunately they suffered a mid-season slump and saw themselves slipping from the top four of the Premier League.
Villas-Boas was sacked following a string of poor performances, which saw the appointment of assistant manager http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roberto-c31294 Di Matteo as the new manager. Since then the Blues have been in terrific form, having already won the FA Cup and in the final of the UEFA
Champions League.
Lampard revealed he was extremely pleased with the FA Cup win, which is his fourth win with the Blues. He continued:
“I think they get even sweeter as you get older because you know they don't always keep going forever. It's been a brilliant competition for us, recently, obviously.”
While they are not in contention for the English Premier League, the Blues now have the chance to claim the UEFA Champions League for the very first time. Lampard admitted they had the confidence ahead of the clash against Bayern Munich but revealed it would
be an extremely different game from the FA Cup win against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809.
Lampard said:
“It's a completely different game, different setting. Hopefully, we can take the confidence and get the result we want but it'll be a very tough game.
We've been very close in the Champions League quite a few times and the club and the players, the fans, are desperate to win it. We know we've got one hurdle to do but we'll be giving everything to do it.”
