Frank Lampard press conference

Frank Lampard spoke to the press ahead of Everton's meeting with Southampton. Here are some key quotes: 

On clean sheets: "The important thing is winning games in the Premier League, with the level of it you can concede goals. You've just got to find a way to limit the opportunities of the other team and that was one of the big pluses of Leeds."

On Armando Broja: "I gave him his debut. He's a very good lad, very talented young boy. He showed the attributes I think you are seeing now in the Premier League at Southampton. He's fast, strong and has a real eye for goal."  

On Nathan Patterson: "Nathan is obviously a young player we have a lot of hopes for in the longer term."

On Donny van de Beek: "I'm really impressed. I'm impressed with him on a professional level, on his fitness and his game sharpness."

 "He's a top level player, he was when Manchester United. He shows that if you keep your head down and working, there's always a way through it."
