Lampard says Chelsea aiming to win FA Cup

Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard is up for winning the FA Cup this season.

Lampard hopes to start against Manchester City today.

"It was always a competition I grew up wanting to win badly, having watched it as a kid, and I am very proud of those [four] medals.

"Because I have had success in it, and some good days including semi-finals, when you look at your career the big FA Cup games always really stand out. The FA Cup does matter. I never understand teams who rotate a lot in the FA Cup because whether you are top of the League or fighting against relegation, it doesn't help when you get knocked out of a competition as big as the FA Cup. It always helps when you go on a run and we take it seriously."
