Michael Laudrup says that Frank Lampard is a quality player following Chelsea's 2-0 win over Swansea City.

Swansea City manager Michael Laudrup has insisted that Frank Lampard will always have quality following his side's defeat to Chelsea on Sunday.

Lampard netted the Blues' second in a 2-0 win at Stamford Bridge and is now just one goal away from equalling Bobby Tambling's record of 202 goals for the club.

After the match, the former Barcelona and Real Madrid man revealed his admiration for the England international.

"When you have quality, you will always have it," Laudrup told ESPN. "The thing is, even if we don't want to admit it, we all get older.

"Sometimes the pace is not the same, you can't do exactly the same things, but the quality is always there.

"We know Frank Lampard, the quality he has. Always coming from the second line into the box, so difficult to mark - he's scored so many goals."

Chelsea are now third in the Premier League, while the Swans sit ninth.
