da luck： Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard has stated that the club’s experienced players still have an important role to play at the club.
The Blues made a barnstorming comeback to beat Napoli 4-1 at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday and reach the Champions League quarter-finals, with the likes of John Terry, Didier Drogba and Lampard himself all scoring and playing a key role in the victory.
The England international feels that a successful side needs experienced campaigners, and that there is life in the older players still.
“Of course it is. You can’t win these sort of competitions without that,” he told The Daily Mail when asked if experience is key at the top level.
“We need to be on top form and we need to be playing well but you can see the desire in the players.
“There is a lot of talk about old boys and their careers flickering out but these are the players who want to play, want to win. You could see that against Napoli.
“When you’ve got that, you can add to it with youth and quality players to fit in around the team. That’s the recipe and we have to carry on with that.
“A lot gets said on the outside but people here just want to win. You need old and experienced boys in the team as well as the young ones coming through with their enthusiasm.
“The amount of nights that Didier has stood up, John and so on, that’s what Chelsea is all about. It can get us a result like this,” he concluded.
