Frank Lampard says keeping Everton in the Premier League would top winning titles.

The Toffees moved out of the relegation zone with a brilliant 2-1 away win over Leicester City on Sunday.

Former Chelsea star Lampard's side are now one point ahead of 18th-placed Leeds United with a game in hand heading into Wednesday's clash with Watford.

"When you live this experience of a relegation battle it so consumes you and you so want the right thing because you understand what the stakes are," he said.

"The stakes for this are bigger for me now than when I won the Premier League as a player because of what it means to the club.

"You know the economics of it are greater as well, to a different degree, and you know what it means to the fans and the people who work here. There shouldn't be any way, with four games to go and one point out of the relegation zone, that you think you are fine. We've got a big job to do still."
