Frank Lampard Interview

Frank Lampard: ‘I’ve hardly kicked a ball since I finished and I’ve got no craving to’

Updated:  3 May 2018

The former Chelsea midfielder reveals the principles that guide him and says he is ready to make the move into football management a year since hanging up his boots

It is easy to imagine that the end of a footballer’s career comes as a massive, debilitating shock, suddenly depriving the player not just of their livelihood but also of routine, friendship, fitness and excitement. A little over a year since that moment came for Frank Lampard, he looks at it a little differently. There have been times, he says, when the sudden change in his life has “smacked me in the face”, but more commonly he has appreciated the release of the pressure accumulated over 21 years at the top of the game. As he plots his return to the sport as a manager, however, he is aware that it is only likely to be temporary.

“I didn’t make all the right decisions in my career, far from it, but when I got to the end I felt I’d given it my full whack,” he says. “When you can think: ‘I put everything on the table and that’s my lot,’ I think you have been quite successful. That’s probably what drove me on as a player for quite a long while – I wanted to make sure I took every ounce out of the game and got the most out of myself.

“And then it becomes like a relief, when you feel that the work’s done and it wasn’t too bad. I didn’t have too many failures, and I actually did some pretty good stuff. I’m very content with that. I’ve hardly kicked a ball since I finished, and I’ve got no craving to kick a ball. I do other things now.”

Lampard won four FA Cups, three league titles, two League Cups and the Champions League and Europa League once each, as well as winning 106 England caps in an international career that stretched for only a few months short of 15 years. “When you’re at a big club, there isn’t much breathing space,” he says. “You’re continuously trying to win things, to perform to the best of your ability, and it can be quite tiring. I’ll be honest, at the end of my career I was ready to move on. In terms of the intense pressure I put on myself for that period of time, I felt ready. I’m asked a lot now: ‘Are you missing football?’ And I’m actually not. I sit here pretty happy with my lot.

“When you’re playing you get looked after, you have people around you who completely put you out of the real world, and then the real world hits you smack in the face when you finish. But I was fortunate in that the transition hasn’t been a problem for me. I needed the pause, I really did. I needed the lack of structure in my life for a while. I felt kind of ready for that. It was a necessity for me to get away. It’s been a year and a half, almost, and now I have the hunger. So it’ll come when it comes, if the right opportunity comes for me.”

Lampard has remained involved with football, swapping the pitch for punditry while he works on his coaching qualifications – he starts the Pro Licence course in September – and puts what he is learning into practice at Chelsea’s academy. “I’ve picked up a lot in this year, working in the media, travelling around” he says. “You have to do it properly. I don’t just roll up and go: ‘That was a good game.’ You have to look at the players, the tactics.

“That’s why I’m not setting a time limit on the move into management. You don’t just flick a switch – you need to learn a lot again. There are no shortcuts as I see it.”

Looking back at his playing career, Lampard says “my biggest talent – or certainly one of them – was my work ethic and dedication”. He spent most of those years primarily focused on himself, on constant betterment. He is conscious, however, that such a mindset cannot survive in management.
