Frank Lampard has stated that he will not celebrate should his Derby County side upset Chelsea in the Carabao Cup this evening, the Telegraph reports.
Lampard will return to the club where he spent 13 years as a player tonight as manager of Derby County.
Prior to the match, the 40-year-old discussed the possibility of him becoming a future Chelsea manager.
In football your next game is all-important. I don’t see anything beyond playing Chelsea, and then I will concentrate on Birmingham at the weekend.
So to dream is one thing, but in reality, what happens next will rely on what I do here. Hopefully I can bring success to this club.
Should the Rams follow up their shock victory over Jose Mourinho’s Manchester United in the previous round, Lampard has revealed that he shall not celebrate Derby’s progression.
It will be easy [to show restraint] because I respect the club. When I scored against them, I didn’t celebrate. I wouldn’t have done in a million years. Although I was doing my job, I love Chelsea and had a strong bond with the fans that will hopefully never go.
As a manager, I will be respectful because I have to appreciate what the club did for me. I will feel proud and honoured going back to a place I called home for 13 years and still feels like home.
This is my working home now and I have got a great affiliation with this club already, but I can’t forget 13 years of my career. So it will be a very special night. To get that support when you’re working for an opposing team will feel nice.
