Lambert insists Liverpool can shock Chelsea in Cup

Liverpool striker Rickie Lambert would love to bring silverware back to Anfield this season.

Chelsea are in town on Tuesday for the first part of their Capital One Cup semi-final. Few will give Liverpool hope of victory over two legs.

"I went to the Champions League semi-final against Chelsea in 2005," Lambert said. "It was the best atmosphere I've ever experienced. Can we do the same? It would be brilliant. We're getting better, we've got players coming back and we're still in all the cups.

"Chelsea will probably be favourites but we've got the winning mentality back. I can't talk all day about iconic games from the past. We want to have our own."
