Frank Lampard<\/a><\/abbr> has no problem playing a holding role in Chelsea<\/a><\/abbr>\u2019s midfield.<\/p>\n

Lampard was deployed as one of two deep midfielders as the Blues continued pre-season preparations on Wednesday by thrashing Hong Kong champions Kitchee 4-0 in the Barclays Asia Trophy.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have played there for England fairly regularly but I do like to get forward and this won\u2019t be a role that will stop me getting into the box,\u201d said Lampard.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs long as I\u2019m never told not to stray beyond the half way line, I\u2019ll be happy. I\u2019ve never been that kind of player anyway. Some people can play there but I don\u2019t think so.<\/p>\n

\u201cPre-season is always been about getting yourself fresh and I really feel I\u2019m getting there. If I didn\u2019t feel I was getting there I wouldn\u2019t want to hang around too long.<\/p>\n

\u201cI love getting into box, getting up and down the pitch. I know I can do it now and, hopefully, I can do it for a few more years. I know that day will come although I will probably be sold before then.\u201d<\/p>\n
