Chelsea's Lampard rates Premiership ahead of Champions League

Frank Lampard has put winning the Premiership ahead of the Champions League at Chelsea this season.

Lampard explained: “Of course, I would love to win the Champions League, to put that missing medal in there with the rest of them.

“But if you told me that in the next five years I would win the league title three or four times but no Champions League, well I would take that right now.

“I love Premier League football and the thought of us being on top of the pile again is terrific.

“That’s why I am desperate to win the league back. The best days of my footballing life were when we were winning the league titles, especially that first one."
