Chelsea talisman http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Frank-Lampard-c14097 has admitted to having issues with AVB but insists negativity has to be overcome.
Following AVB’s revelations that some of the Blues’ players no longer back him at the helm, the club’s talismanic midfielder has confirmed that he doesn’t see eye-to-eye with the Portuguese.
"I think, from the outside, you can probably see that it's not been ideal but the important thing is not to focus on individual relationships too much. It can only be negative and people do like to play on negatives."
AVB had expressed that Lampard was not alone in expressing discontent at the club, and the midfielder agreed to it: "There have been certain issues. Certain players, we don't like not to play, but it's never a case of players throwing their toys out of the pram to the detriment of the club."
Chelsea have been criticized for the inability to strengthen the ranks, with most of the star players now in the twilights of their careers. Lampard, however, begs to differ, adding that he deserves more.
"I've been here a long time, I'm 33, I'm realistic. It doesn't mean I want to play every game but, if I sit on the bench, I want to see Chelsea win.
"I'm sure we're all frustrated at the minute, everyone who's involved - especially people who have got http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 in their hearts, who have been here a long time and want to see us performing as we should do."
Speaking further, the attacker insisted that the club needs to move on to seal a Champions League berth for the next season.
"The only way we can push on from now - and secure Champions League football next year, potentially move through in the FA Cup and the Champions League this year - is to be positive.
"It's in the club's interest. It's not about any one individual here and negative things can take the shine off it." He concluded.
