Frank was an example throughout my career at Chelsea, and throughout my career as a midfielder. When it comes to scoring goals as a midfielder, you look at Frank Lampard as a role model.
For me, I want to be scoring goals. That's what I'm judged on, and that's what I judge myself on.
Scoring goals is scoring goals. From a striker's point of view, the aim is the same.
I started to play, like all kids do, not as a goalkeeper. I liked scoring goals; in the end, it's all about scoring goals.
When you're a kid you want to be a striker, you want to be scoring goals. I still want to be scoring goals! It's the easiest part of football, no it's not, it's the best part of football - the one you enjoy the most. But I always knew that my particular skill set was more suited to being a goalkeeper.
I think I want to become more rounded, I want to keep honing my skills and fine-tuning the qualities that I have. And scoring more goals - every striker wants to score more goals.
What fulfills me are the goals that I have in life. And those goals are not just about scoring goals, although the goals give me a lot of strength and happiness.
I see comments occasionally about the way I speak but it goes straight over my head. You speak the way you speak and it is a silly thing to judge someone on.
The most important thing is to be a midfielder first, not scoring goals. You have to make the game, make an assist for the team, and if you can score, it's a plus for the team.
I have always been scoring goals, and now the quality of goals I am scoring is better.
Obviously, you want to help the team win in any way possible. If that's scoring goals, great.
I think a top-class midfielder needs to be able to tackle, get up and down the pitch, pass, create opportunities, and score goals. That's why I try to do everything; that's what I judge my game on.
It's not just about scoring goals, it's about being a team player and setting goals up.
I miss scoring lots of goals, but I have always thought that a striker should not be judged just by the amount of goals he scores. The work he does for the team is also important.
People always see the goals, and for me, strikers are not only about scoring goals.
As a No. 9, I have to be there to score goals, but that isn't the only thing. I also participate in the build-up and help my team-mates, but, above all, it's about scoring goals.
