Lampard says CL win over Liverpool has set the tone for Chelsea to go for glory in EPL & FA Cup






Two goals from defender Branislav Ivanovic and a third from Didier Drogba gave Chelsea an emphatic victory on Wednesday night, after Liverpool's Fernando Torres had put the Reds in front in the sixth minute.

Chelsea are favourites to reach the semi-finals of the competition, and Lampard was buoyed by the performance and resultu00a0amid speculation that Carlo Ancelotti is to join the Blues as coach in June.

Ancelotti for Blues

Latest media reports suggest the AC Milan coach has accepted a u00a35.8million deal to replace interim coach Guus Hiddink, but Chelsea officially dismissed them as "just speculation".

Midfielder Lampard was at his influential best against Liverpool, who will go to Stamford Bridge next Tuesday requiring at least three goals to have any chance of turning the tie in their favour.

Lampard is not ready, though, to focus solely on winning the Champions League this season. "This result sets the tone really," he said.

"Who knows what can happen in the Premier League and the FA Cup?

"Everything is still up for grabs, even though we are behind in the league. It is important that we keep to the standard we played against Liverpool. When we look at the strength of our team throughout the pitch, we are as good as anybody.

Past is behind

"There have been times this season when we have not performed at our bestu00a0and we have to take responsibility for that as individuals and as a team. But it is done and in the past.

"When we play like we did against Liverpool, then we can get such results.

"We hope if we can carry on playing like that we will put fear into a lot of teams. But we must keep to those high standards."
