Frank Lampard's flury of goals for club and country since returning from injury in December have given the midfielder fresh hope of extending his Chelsea contract and prolonging his England career.
.
'' The World Cup is certainly a target for me and I will try to keep playing at a good enough level to get there '', Lampard was quoted as saying in British media on Friday.
.
'' It's a target. I won't retire from England before that, put it that way '', added Lampard, who scored the winner in the 2-1 friendly international victory over Brazil on Wednesday.
.
'' If I can continue playing for Chelsea and contributing here with England, whether it's starting or not, and as valuable squad member, and do my bit when I play, then the World Cup is getting a bit nearer '', Lampard concluded.
