Lampard gunning for FA Cup glory
Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard believes that winning the Double would be a massive psychological boost heading into the World Cup.[LNB] Lampard has played a massive role in the Blues' Premier League title-winning campaign - contributing 25 goals in all competitions.[LNB]The 31-year-old has now set his sights on winning the FA Cup final on Saturday which he says will set him up nicely for the World Cup.[LNB]"I think if we lost that would be the freshest thing on my mind and that would be horrible," he told Sky Sports News.[LNB]"That makes us even more focused on finishing the job but it's not as easy a game as some would make out."[LNB]The England midfielder also poured cold water on suggestions John Terry might miss the World Cup.[LNB]Terry was thought to have sustained serious damage to his right foot when striker Daniel Sturridge fell on him in training earlier this week.[LNB]Lampard, though, made light of the situation, saying it was not as serious as first thought.[LNB]"That's the way of the world now, a player could break a fingernail and everyone would panic. Especially a player as good as John Terry," he said.[LNB]"It was a brief scare but it's all behind us now."[LNB]As the FA Cup final draws near, so does this summer's feature event and with it an enormous amount of pressure on the England squad to reach their target.[LNB]Lampard says he is taking it one step at a time, starting with winning the FA Cup which he believes would see this year go down as one of the greatest in Chelsea's history.[LNB]"It's huge. It's never been done in our history as a club and obviously not with this bunch of players," he said.[LNB]"It's something we really want to do. I grew up watching teams win the Double in the 70s and 80s.[LNB]"If we can put ourselves amongst those names it could go down as one of the biggest years in the club's history."
