Frank Lampard has marked his target as winning the Premier League this season.Although the Chelsea midfielder admitted that the Champions League is still a substantial presence on his to-do list, he remained resolute as he said that there was no contest when it came to choosing which of the two honours he would rather have.“For me, it is the [Premier] League,” the 31-year-old declared on the club’s official website.“I grew up watching the Premiership, and the League before that, and it's a lovely feeling to be the best team in your country, and I want to get that back.“The Champions League is definitely something I want to win at least once in my career, but for me the League is where we need to get to the consistency levels we had a few years ago.”The England international went on to elaborate on the days of glory under Jose Mourinho, before explaining that the Pensioners’ team spirit is presently on a high.“We now need to get back to winning ways in terms of the League, we were dominant for two years and now Manchester United have been playing fantastically for three years,” he reminisced.“But now there's a real feeling between the players that, although winning the FA Cup was great this year, we want to go that one step further and get consistency in the League back and then push for the Champions League.”The Blues have had a promising pre-season, winning every game they have played, scoring eight goals and conceding only one in the process.
